Milltown (Irish: Baile an Mhuilinn)[1] is a small village in County Cavan, Ireland. The population as at 2021 was around 100. During a nineteenth century O'Donavan townlands survey of County Cavan it was noted that the Milltown area was traditionally referred to as Bellanaleck (Beal Atha Na Leice - the mouth of the ford of the flagstone), there are no other records with this name. The Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan notes (507) Derrygeeraghan , a raised circular Rath area with two substantial earthen banks and a wide deep fosse dating from earlier medieval times. The present Milltown Electoral Division and catchment area comprises several neighboring townlands within an ancient Barony of Loughtee Lower, County Cavan and Drumlane Civil Parish in County Cavan.
