Ringaskiddy

Ringaskiddy (Irish: Rinn an Scidígh, meaning 'Skiddy's Headland')[2] is a village in County Cork, Ireland.

A motorway project, to connect Cork city with Ringaskiddy, was given the "green light" by the supreme court in March 2021.

In 1796, the site was bought and a mansion house (incorporating the remnants of the earlier castle) was built by the Warren family.

[citation needed] Ringaskiddy is an important industrial centre, particularly for pharmaceutical companies such as Centocor, GlaxoSmithKline, Hovione, Novartis, Pfizer, and Recordati.

[18] Amenities in Ringaskiddy, and nearby Shanbally, include a church, primary school, shop, preschool and community centre.

[citation needed] The National Maritime College of Ireland was officially opened in Ringaskiddy in 2006, and has drawn a student population to the village.
