Kilworth
Kilworth (Irish: ''Cill Uird'') is a village in north County Cork, located about 2 kilometres north of Fermoy near the river Funcheon. The M8 Cork–Dublin motorway passes nearby. Kilworth has an Army Camp, located on the R639 regional road between Mitchelstown and Fermoy. ==History== The name Kilworth comes from Irish (Gaelic) "Cill Úird", literally meaning "church of the order". In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Kilworth was a notable settlement on the old Dublin to Cork road, prior to the construction of the T6/old N8/R639 road from Fermoy to Cashel and from Cashel to Urlingford between 1739 and the mid-nineteenth century. Numerous accounts and maps dating from the 1680s tell of armies and travellers journeying from Fermoy to Clogheen and onwards to Dublin via Kilworth and Kilworth Mountain.〔See, for example, David Broderick, ''The First Toll Roads: Ireland's Turnpike Roads, 1729–1858'' (Cork, 2002); J. H. Andrews, ''Shapes of Ireland: Maps and Their Makers, 1564–1839'' (Dublin, 1997); Taylor and Skinner's ''Maps of the Roads of Ireland'' (Dublin, 1778); and Herman Moll's ''New Map of Ireland'' (1714).〕
