About Riverchapel
Riverchapel is a village. Location: County Wexford, Leinster. Elevation: 18 m.
Riverchapel (Irish: Séipéal na hAbhann) is a village in County Wexford, Ireland. It lies just south of Courtown on the R742 regional road and has been a summer holiday resort for Dublin people at least since tourists started to arrive in 1863 when the railway line from Dublin reached nearby Gorey. The population of the area has also grown significantly since the mid-2000s. Riverchapel is 1 km inland from the Irish Sea coast and has merged into the adjoining village of Courtown.
