| 304. Glanworth |
| The bridge here, built in 1600, is probably the oldest in the county. It is overlooked by the shell of a castle of the Roches. Between here and Fermoy is Labbacalee - the Grave of the Old Woman - which is a very large megalithic wedge-shaped tomb, one of the largest in Ireland. It consists of a large rectangular chamber with a smaller one behind it, topped by three large capstones, and all standing with a wedge-shaped stone cairn which once would have covered it completely. Some human remains and stone Age pottery were found there. |

| 305. Glengarriff |
Glengarriff, though famous as a tourist resort, is just a village lying in the heart of a beautiful glen. It consists chiefly of pleasantly scattered hotels and other places catering for visitors.
Glengariff Harbour has the appearance of a lovely land-locked estuary or a lake dotted with a hundred wooded islets; its entrance is guarded by the island of Ilnaculin or Garinish Island whose famous and beautiful gardens are open to the public (boats available).
