Dromineer (Irish: Drom Inbhir/Druim Inbhir, meaning 'ridge of the river mouth')[2] is a small village and townland[3] in County Tipperary, Ireland. It is on the shores of Lough Derg, 8 km north-west of Nenagh (10 km by road) on the R495 road. It is also a civil parish in the historical barony of Ormond Lower. Historic documents describe the places as "Dromynnyre"; the earliest form of the name dating from 1302 was Dromynwyr.[4]
