Garryvoe
Garryvoe (Irish: Garraí Bhoithe) is a civil parish in the historical barony of Imokilly in County Cork, Ireland.[1] The civil parish is centred on a small settlement, also referred to as Garryvoe, which lies on the R632 regional road between Ladysbridge, and Shanagarry and fronts onto Garryvoe Beach.[2]
Evidence of ancient settlement in the area includes a number of ringfort, fulacht fiadh and enclosure sites in the townlands of Garryvoe Lower, Garryvoe Upper and Ballybutler.[3] Garryvoe Castle, a ruined tower house in the townland of Garryvoe Lower,[3] is sometimes associated with the Anglo-Norman Carew family.[4][5] A ruined medieval church and graveyard is located nearby.[4][6][7]
While previously classified as a Blue Flag beach,[8] as of 2020 the beach at Garryvoe was classified as an "identified bathing water" area of "sufficient" quality.[9]
The TikTok personality and radio presenter, Miriam Mullins, is from the area.[10]
