Ireland, land of the welcomes, invites you to County Cork

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).
