Kildorrery (Irish: Cill Dairbhre, meaning 'church of the oak-forest')[2] is a village in north County Cork, Ireland. It lies at the crossroads of the N73 road from Mallow to Mitchelstown and the R512 from Kilmallock to Fermoy. Kildorrery is part of the Cork East Dáil constituency.
The village, which sits on a hilltop plateau, overlooks the surrounding area.[3] To the east are the Galtee Mountains and Knockmealdown Mountains, with Slievenamon in the distance. To the north the Ballyhouras – the Limerick road is flanked by two mountains, Castlegale and Carrigeenamronety Hill (Carraigín na mBróinte). To the south, across the Blackwater Valley, are the Nagle mountains.[citation needed]
