St. Brigid's, Meath Hill Gaelic Football Club is a Gaelic football club based in northern County Meath, Ireland.[1]

History

Meath Hill was founded in 1903 and played Castletown in the semi-final of the Meath Senior Football Championship.[2]

During some years of high emigration when the club was unable to field a team due to a lack of available players, many of the players played with North Meath Gaels. In 1972 a pitch was developed beside Ballyhoe Lake. The club moved to its current home in 1992. Meath Hill won a first Meath IFC in 2024.[3][4][5]
