Aglish (An Eaglais in Irish[1]) is a small settlement in County Tipperary in Ireland. It is in the Civil parish of Aglishcloghane in the historical barony of Ormond Lower. It is located approximately 7 km north of Borrisokane, 1 km east of the R438 road.
The local Roman Catholic church, St. Michael’s (built 1893), is a limestone structure in a village composed of modest domestic buildings.[2]
The previously disused old school, just to the east has been restored by an Operation Transformation group into a space for the local community.[3]
The building of Aglish Church of Ireland was financed by the Board of First Fruits, it is listed (RPS Ref S9) as a protected structure.[4][5]
