What is "kilmeadan"

Kilmeadan or Kilmeaden ( Irish: Cill Mhíodáin) is a village in County Waterford, Ireland. It is on the R680 regional road. The town is 36km from Dungarvan and 8km from Waterford. Kilmeadan shares its name with a world-famous cheese brand that was, until 2005, produced in a factory in the heart of the village.

Kilmeadan is also the site of St. Mary's Church, a Church of Ireland Chapel, located in the north-western part of the village, Old Kilmeaden, near the railway station, on the R680 regional road towards Carrick-On-Suir.

The school serving the Kilmeadan area is found in Ballyduff, a neighbouring village, which is also home to the Catholic Church of the area, St. Nicholas' Church. Both the GAA and soccer teams of the area are also named Ballyduff Lower GAA and Ballyduff AFC respectively.
