Irota is a village in Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county, Hungary. It is 20 kilometres north of the town of Edelény, 180 metres above sea level in a narrow valley. Its only stream, the ‘Hunters’ Creek’ (Vadászpatak in Hungarian) runs south. In the forest area which starts from the northern end of Irota, there is the highest peak of the region (the so-called Goat Bank, or Kecskepad) at a height of 340 metres.
==History== The village was mentioned for the first time in 1320. By 1726, the population consisted both of Hungarian and Ruthenian speakers. Most of the inhabitants were shepherds, foresters and small farmers. In the 19th century, a local quarry was used to produce the locally applied bricks and rooftiles.
