Geocache Description:


Quick one Stage to final Multi, around this pretty village. 

 

Redhills : An Cnoc Rua, meaning "the red hill", is a village located in northern County Cavan. It is home to Redhills GAA club, which has produced four Cavan Inter-County players.

The film, The Playboys, was filmed on location in the village, as was the film The Run of the Country. Both films were scripted by Oscar nominee and Redhills native, Shane Connaughton. Connaughton's books A Border Station and The Run of the Country are also set in the village.
