Hollyfort Village

Hollyfort (Irish: Ráth an Chuilinn, meaning "ringfort of the holly") is a village in north County Wexford, Ireland. It lies within the townland of Mangan (Irish: an Mongán, meaning "the little swamp") in the valley of the River Bann, 5 km northwest of Gorey.

Historically it was called Rahincullin, which is an anglicisation of its Irish name.

A Day for Philip


We are proud to have been part of 'A Day for Philip'
and to celebrate the life and work of Hollyfort's very own Philip Casey, poet and writer.

A wonderful day to unveil Philip's plaque on Grove Bridge followed by readings of his poetry in the 200 year old St. John's Church, with refreshments in the Old School.
