Scarriff[2] or Scariff (Irish: An Scairbh, meaning 'The Rocky Ford') is a large village[2] in east County Clare, Ireland, situated in the midwest of Ireland. The town is on the West end of Lough Derg and is best known for its harbour. The Scarriff Market House is easily recognisable, and it is therefore often used to represent the town.[3]
