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.

Hollyfort's Sensory Garden


We are delighted to pass on the good news about the enhancement of a plot of land in Hollyfort village. A derelict site, currently used as a dumping ground, behind the row of village houses, will be made into a sensory garden.

A plan of the proposed sensory garden is currently been drawn up, with the help of a local horticulturist and a derelict site grant.

We have started by cleaning up the debris and rubbish on the site, and are making it ready for a local landscaper.

Plants will include those that engage one’s senses of sight, smell, touch, taste and sound. The space will also be bee and butterfly friendly.

We look forward to working with this imaginative project which will enhance Hollyfort village for everyone.
