Skryne, or Skreen as it is officially known, is a small village situated on and around a hill. The hill is a short distance east of the Hill of Tara and the area is sometimes referred to as the Tara/Skryne Valley. One can enjoy wonderful views of each hill from the summit of the other. In the 12th century, Hugh de Lacy granted the Barony of Skryne to his finest knight, Adam de Feipo. He subdivided it and granted twenty of his followers with land grants.
