Cloonacool (Irish: Cluain na Cúile, meaning 'meadow at the back')[1] is a village in County Sligo, Ireland. Cloonacool sits at the foot of the Ox Mountains, and this is where the name "at the back" comes from. The Mad river runs close to the village before it links up with the River Moy also running close to the village.[citation needed]
