Ballydesmond (Baile Deasumhan in Irish) is a rural village in County Cork, Republic of Ireland, situated on the Blackwater River, near its rising in Menganine, directly on the Cork-Kerry border. In Irish Baile Deasumhain, meaning town of the Desmond, was named after the legendary freedom fighter, the Earl of Desmond, who it is believed hid out in the nearby hills.
