Hurlers Cross (Irish:Crois na hIomána)[1] is a small village inCounty Clare, Ireland. It is situated close toShannon Town and 6 km (3.7 mi) from bothSixmilebridge andNewmarket-on-Fergus. It forms a part of Newmarket-on-Fergus parish.
The name is derived from the meeting of three roads: one toEnnis (and later Shannon), one toLimerick and one toSixmilebridge. The last named is now closed off at the western end of the village, following the opening of adual-carriageway bypass (N18/N19) serving the Limerick to Ennis route, which has taken away the heavy traffic that was once a feature of Hurlers Cross.[citation needed]
