Fartha is a small townland in south County Cork, Ireland. Fartha consists of 454 acres (1.84 km2) of good farming land, predominantly tillage. The origins of the townland are believed to be related to a burial place, land of tombs and graves. There is a ringfort and a famine village in the townland.
