Ballyguyroe

Ballyguyroe (Irish original unavailable, perhaps "Baile an Gabhair Rua", Town of the Red Goat, in keeping with the local bridge called Goat's Bridge), or "Ballinguyroe", North and South are rural townloads of Shanballymore in the southern foothills of the Ballyhoura Mountains in north County Cork, Ireland.

The local economy is largely agriculture and forestry.

The area came into prominence as the proposed location by the Greenstar company for its planned dump - a proposal defeated by the locality at An Bord Pleanála in 2004 and 2008.
