A bird reserve next to a pharmaceutical facility
Ringaskiddy is known as a hub of the pharmaceutical industry, something that has given generations of locals employment and other benefits. Closeby; is the related area of Currabinny (spelled Curraghbinny by the Ordnance Survey and Currabinney by others) which has a less industrial and more residential vibe. The sylvanian backdrop of Currabinny woods with its views of Crosshaven across the Owenboy river have made Currabinny something of a millionaires row. Yet, the ordinary citizen can enjoy Currabinny woods – managed by Coillte – for free. Indeed there is a free car park there too. We recommend you visit sometime.
