Local history

An A to Z of quirky facts and stories about Cork county.

County Cork is the largest county in Ireland with a heritage that has been written about, celebrated and commemorated over many centuries. This book explores the historical curiosities within the county's sweeping river valleys, epic mountainous locations and sprawling coastline. There are many sites and stories to encounter, which sweep the reader off to ancient underground worlds to myth-making landscapes and ghostly tales. From apparitions to zoomorphic images, the county possesses a myriad of tales to stop the explorer in their tracks, which all add to County Cork's strong sense of place.
