Redhills (Irish: An Cnoc Rua, meaning "the red hill"), is a village located in northern County Cavan, Ireland. It is near the N54 road and is home to Redhills GAA, which has produced four Cavan Inter-County players.
The 1992 film, The Playboys, was filmed on location in the village. The film was scripted by Oscar nominee and Redhills native, Shane Connaughton. [1] Connaughton's books A Border Station (1989) and The Run of the Country (1991) are also set in the village.[2][3]
