Enfield

Population: 3,663 (2022 Census)

Enfield, County Meath is a town of approximately 3,700 people located on the southern border of County Meath, some 30km to the west of Dublin.  Enfield has long been associated with its position along the transport routes that run east and west across Ireland and was originally known as Innfield, reflecting its role as a stopping place along the way. Yet since the late 20th Century, Enfield has become a place to stay, with many new houses built on either side of its busy Main Street.  Today the town is home to a young and vibrant community, retaining bonds to its rural origins while looking forward to a positive future.

Plans & Publications

This Town Centre First Plan presents a vision for the future of Enfield. It has been shaped by a collaborative process involving people from right across the town, including the members of Enfield Town Team, and with support provided by Meath County Council and a professional consultancy.

Yet this plan is more than a vision.  It sets out a series of transformative projects to be delivered in Enfield. These vary in scale and ambition, but all share the common goal of making Enfield the most attractive, vibrant, and green town, with welcoming spaces for everyone, while making the most of excellent local and regional connectivity.
