Loughroe is a townland in Rahan Parish. The name is said to derive from the Irish, Lough Rua, or red lake, most likely a reference to the nearby raised bog, which is the brown area on this map. The Grand Canal marks the northern boundary of Loughroe. An esker, stretching in a NW/SE direction marks the southern boundary of Loughroe and the neighbouring townland of Roscore.
