Clonava [1] is a townland in County Westmeath, Ireland. It is located about 16.31km (10.13miles) north of county town Mullingar.
Clonava is one of 35 townlands of the civil parish of Street in the barony of Moygoish in the Province of Leinster. The townland covers 1125acres, including 35acres of water; part of the western end of Lough Derravaragh and the majority of the small lake, Lough Ruddan.
