County bordering the sea north of Dublin (5)

I believe the answer is:

meath

(Other definitions for meath that I've seen before include "County NW of Dublin" , "lost province" , "Tara's county" , "part of Ireland" , "Irish county of ancient kings, site of Tara" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
