Curraghkippane Cemetery

Curraghkippane Cemetery or Currykippane Cemetery, also known as St Mary's Cemetery, is a cemetery in Clogheen in the Kerry Pike area west of Cork in Ireland. The cemetery site, in use since at least the medieval period, overlooks Carrigrohane and the western part of Cork city, the River Lee valley, and the eastern part of Ballincollig. The Curraghkippane name is a metonymy, as its meaning used to apply to the entire area on the hill, but was reduced to refer to the cemetery alone. The wider area, including the townland to the east inclusive of the cemetery, has been thereafter referred to as Mount Desert.
