Monaseed ( - meaning the boggy place of flint arrows) is a hamlet in North co Wexford. The tiny village centre comprises a Primary National School which was established in 1913, a Catholic church, a Community Hall and some beautiful walks and scenery. Recent housing development has taken place outside and inside the village boundary, which is itself very extensive relative to population. Monaseed is approximately 4 km from The historic old Protestant stronghold of Carnew, an 14 km from the substantial town of Gorey.
As in the case of neighbouring Hollyfort, the Monaseed area has grown considerably since the 1990s, as suburban Gorey extends into the surrounding countryside. Over 40 new houses have been built in and around the village.
The Myles Byrne Community Hall was built in 1948 and dedicated to the memory of Myles Byrne on 150th anniversary of the Irish Rebellion of 1798.
