During the past 200 years, Drogheda has developed many industries, including linen making and brewing. The town has also produced many distinguished citizens, including Dr T.K. Whittaker, the Irish economist who was brought up in the town.The development of the port and of the railway through the town have also been significant. In recent years, the addition of many modern facilities as Drogheda has expanded to a population of nearly 100,000, has added to the town's amenities.
