Drimoleague (historically Drumdalege, Irish: Droim Dhá Liag, meaning 'ridge of two stones')[1] is a village[2] on the R586 regional road at its junction with the R593 in County Cork, Ireland. It lies roughly halfway between the towns of Dunmanway and Bantry. It is within the parish of Dromdaleague.
History
Drimoleague was founded in and around 1851 in the townland of Baurnahulla, after a station (surviving building shown right) on the Cork, Bandon and South Coast Railway was built there.
Clodagh Standing Stones, a Stone Age site, lie 4.8 km (3 mi) to the northeast.
