Mealagh Valley
Ireland
The Mealagh Valley (Irish: Gleann na Míolaí from An Mhíolach) is a natural river valley located just outside the town of Bantry, in the south-west of Ireland about 1.5 hours from Cork Airport. Different explanations have been proposed for its name. One explanation that has gained some popularity is that it derives from the word 'Mealach', the Irish for “honeyed”, as the area has a large number of wild bees in its surroundings. It currently has one school (Dromclough National School), which was founded in 1914. In the twentieth century, the valley was also served by Coomleigh National School. This school opened in 1934 and closed in 1968.
