Crossakeel
Crossakiel or Crossakeel ( Irish: ''Crosa Caoil'', meaning "the crosses of Caol") is a village in County Meath, Ireland. It is situated in the north-west of the county, at the junction of the R154 and the L2801, approximately 13km south of Oldcastle and 12km north of Athboy.

This was later demolished to facilitate the construction of Clonabreany House, which is now a wedding venue. Crossakiel in 1837 was a post ...

N51 Road (Ireland)
The N51 road is a national secondary road in Ireland. West to east, it starts in Delvin, County Westmeath at a junction with the N52. It passes through Athboy, a junction with M3 motorway, Navan and Slane, where it crosses the N2 road, all in County Meath, before crossing the M1 motorway and terminating near Drogheda in County Louth at a roundabout on the R132.
