Moygashel is a small village and townland in Tyrone, near the southern edge of Dungannon.
Although the village's name is pronounced with the emphasis on the second syllable, the trademark of the Irish linen named after it is usually pronounced with emphasis on the first syllable.[1] The name is from the Gaelic Maigh gCaisil, meaning 'plain of the stone fort'.[2]
