Frosses

Frosses (Irish: Na Frosa) is a small village in County Donegal, Ireland. It is situated in the south of the county on the R262 regional road and it lies 7 miles west of Donegal Town.[1] Due to the village's small size, a popular joke emerged that one side of the village didn't speak to the other, one side being the local graveyard.[2] The local Catholic Church is St. Mary's, located on the main street.[3]
