The Club Crest

The place name Castleknock is derived from the Gaelic name Caislean Cnucha, and there are many references in ancient manuscripts to the legendary figure Cnucha.

"…Cnucha of the beautiful head, She dwelt in the painted fortress… The woman was buried sorrowful it was, In the right centre of the hill; So that Cnucha from that time forth, Is its name till the day of judgement."
(from the Book of Lecan)
