Shercock

Shercock lies in the centre of Cavan's Drumlin Belt. The scenic landscape is dominated by small but steep hills (known as drumlins) with lakes and bogs in between. These drumlins were created from material left behind by retreating glaciers.

Shercock is a angling centre of note with nearby Lough Sillan a popular destination. Other lakes which can reap rewards for the angler include Milltown lake, Roosky lake and Steepleton's lake. Fishing bait, tackle and boats can all be bought and hired locally. Click here for further information on fishing in Shercock.

The local Church of Ireland is a beautiful building dating from the final years of the 18th century and is worth a visit. At Milltown Lake, remnants of a promontory fort over 2000 years old can be seen. The fort can be viewed from the main road, jutting into the lake from the shoreline on the south side of the lake. At Milltown lake, there are the remnants of a promontory fort, which is over 2000 years old.
