[edit] More than just a list?

Irish rivers have played an enormous role in all aspects of Ireland's history, culture, economy, not to mention geography. Can we turn this article into something more than just a list? Seabhcán 17:04, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Border crossing

Out of interest - are there any rivers which flow across the border? (Northern Ireland < > Rep. of Ireland) I'm guessing there aren't? or does the Foyle manage it?--feline1 20:32, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Of course there are. It there weren't it would imply the border was a mountain ridge (watershed) or a riverbed. The obvious one is the River Erne which crosses from Cavan to Fermanagh and back to Donegal; smaller rivers and streams flow east from south Donegal into Tyrone, north from north Monaghan into north Armagh, and south from south Armagh into Louth. The Foyle is the confluence of a Donegal river and a l'Derry one; as the Foyle it forms the border. jnestorius^(talk) 22:14, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
