Dysert (Irish: An Díseart, meaning 'hermitage') is a civil parish in County Clare, Ireland.[1] The parish was formerly called Dysert O’Dea, from its having been the territory of the sept of that name.[2] It is part of the ecclesiastical parish of Dysart and Ruan. The ruins of O'Dea Castle and a 12th-century church of Dysert O'Dea Monastery are in the townland of the same name.
