Update pop to reflect 2016 number. (Goodness knows what that other/2011 number was intended to reflect. But it isn't what was stated in the 2011 census. Which, according to the 2011 SAPMAP report, was 331 people. Not 600 odd...)

Newbliss (Irish: Cúil Darach, meaning 'corner of the oaktrees'),[2] historically known as Lisdaragh (Irish: Lios Darach, meaning 'ringfort abounding in oak trees'), is a village in County Monaghan, Ireland. It is located where the R183 and R189 regional roads intersect.

Transport

Rail services do not serve Newbliss, as Newbliss railway station (which opened in 1855) was closed for passenger traffic on 14 October 1957, and closed altogether on 1 January 1960.[3]

Public bus services include Bus Éireann route 162 from Clones to Castleblayney, which serves Newbliss with one journey in each direction on weekdays.[4]
