Glenamaddy
Glenamaddy () is a small town in County Galway, Ireland. It lies at the crossroads where the R362 and R364 regional roads meet. Glenamaddy became a musical focal point in Connacht during the 1960s during the showband era. To the east of the town lies Loch Lurgeen, a raised bog. The origins of the parish lie in the village of Boyounagh, which lies to the northwest of Glenamaddy. Name It is unclear what the exact meaning and Irish translation for Glenamaddy is. It could be derived from the Irish ''Gleann na Madadh'', ''Gleann'' meaning glen (valley) and ''madhadh'' from ''madra'' meaning dog. This would suggest that the name means Valley of the Dogs. This name could have originated from the shape of the Glenamaddy Turlough as looked at from above. Glenamaddy might also have come from ''Gleann na Maighe Duibhí'' or Valley of the Black Plain, presumably because of the turlough lake in the area which dries up every year leaving behind a black plain of limestone.
