Annamoe (Irish: Áth na mBó, meaning "Ford of the Cows")[1] is small picturesque village in County Wicklow, Ireland about 32 km (20 mi) from Dublin located on the Avonmore river. It is on the R755 (at the junction with the R763) between Roundwood and Laragh on the road to Glendalough.
The small stone humpback bridge is a popular place for tourists to stop and view the County Wicklow scenery. There is a trout fishery in the village with a 4-acre (16,000 m2) lake where one can fly or bait fish. A separate fishing pond especially for children allows them to catch elusive brown trout, the rare Arctic char and rainbow trout.[citation needed]
