Edenderry

Irish  Éadan Doire 

      market town, County Offaly, Ire., on the northern edge of the Bog of Allen. The town, including the Court House, was largely built by the marquesses of Downshire in the 18th and early 19th centuries. South of the town are the ruins of Peter Blundell's castle. There are many castles in the area, for Edenderry was located on the edge of the Pale, the medieval English enclave centred on Dublin (39 miles [63 km] east). The main industry is shoemaking. Pop. (2002) 4,216.
