About Oylegate

Oilgate is a handy stop in County Wexford along the N25, which runs from Wexford town south to Rosslare Harbour and the ferry terminals. The N11 connects north to Dublin, about 130 kilometres away, while local roads like the R741 and R742 branch off the main route. You'll find around 70 fast EV chargers in the area, and the nearby Rosslare Championship Golf course attracts players from across the region. The town's name comes from "Geata an Ola" or "gate of the oil," after a medieval toll gate where oil merchants once paid their passage fees.
