Keshcarrigan is a small village next to Lough Scur which lies at the foot of the Sheebeg and Sheemore hills. It is a popular stopover point for cruisers along the canal and the village has two popular pubs which are busy at the weekends. 

The area is steeped in Celtic history, with an ancient pagan burial site overlooking the Lough. The Keshcarrigan Bowl artifact was found here in 1854 and dates back to the Bronze Age. It is currently exhibited in the National Museum of Ireland in Dublin.

Mythical Irish legend, Finn McCumhaill is said to be buried deep into Sheebeg Hill.  While General Humbert marched through the town with his United Irish and French contingents towards Ballinamuck during the 1798 rebellion.
