The Aim of the Kilmore Celtic Directory is to assemble a comprehensive listing of people and organisations who have an interest in and/or work in the Celtic field. This is the first step in a strategy to make Kilmore a major Celtic resource centre and residential address, a Celtic heartland as it were.
We would welcome listings from eligible people or organisations or the names and preferrably also addresses of people who do work in the area of 'Celtic'.
We would also welcome any information on any directory entry which is redundant or has changed address or contact number.

The Institute provides this directory as a community information resource only and the Institute cannot be held responsible for any of the goods or services offered or rendered. It is suggested that you obtain a written quotation or price for any goods or services which you wish to obtain prior to purchase or engagement.
