Hazelhatch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hazelhatch (Colchoill in Irish) is an area on the border between Co. Kildare and Co. Dublin in Ireland. It is located approximately halfway between Celbridge and Newcastle. The Grand Canal passes through the area, and Hazelhatch is one of the main areas of activity along the Grand Canal, with fishing and boating. There are two pubs in Hazelhatch, beside the canal. Although it is not a village, there is a concentration of one-off houses around the area.
The main Southern and Western Railway to Dublin (from Cork, Limerick, Galway, Ballina etc.) passes through Hazelhatch, and there is a commuter station which serves Celbridge and the surrounding areas. Hazelhatch is approximately the same distance from the M4 at Celbridge as it is from the N7, the Naas Road. Other nearby places include Lyons House, Stacumny House and Ardclough.
