River Garavogue
The Garavogue ((アイルランド語:An Gharbhóg)〔(logainm.ie ), accessed 21 May 2009〕) is a river located in County Sligo, Ireland. From Lough Gill, it winds its way through Sligo town and into Sligo Bay. The river has a large estuary with a shipping channel capable of taking ships up to 10,000 tons, but now fallen into disuse and used mainly by smaller pleasure craft.
The River Garavogue (including L. Gill and R. Bonnet) is 〔Ordnance Survey of Ireland: Rivers and their Catchment Basins 1958 (Table of Reference)〕 long.
==Etymology==
The name, ''Garavogue'', is uncertain, but may be a representation of "garbh óg" meaning "young rough". However this is not the original name of the river. The river was originally called the Sligeach, a name meaning ''abounding in shells'' and is one of the oldest attested placenames in Ireland. The river gave its name firstly to the town that grew up on its banks from the 13th century, and then to the county that was established in the late 16th and early 17th century.
