Welcome to Ballyboughal

Ballyboughal is a village and district in central Fingal within the historic County Dublin, near the Naul. The name comes from the Gaelic 'Báile Bachaille' which means 'Town of the Staff', a name derived from the Basal Áosa, or Staff of Jesus, which was carried by St. Patrick during his missionary labours in Ireland.
