New Twopothouse (Irish: Tigh Nua an Dá Phota)[2] is a small village and census town in County Cork, Ireland.[3] It is located in the civil parish of Caherduggan,[2] on the N20 road between Mallow and Buttevant. The nearest major town is Mallow, 5 km to the south.
The area takes its name from an 18th century coaching inn, the "Two-Pot House Inn", which was (in turn) reputedly named for two large beer "pots" which were placed outside the inn.[4] In the 19th century, when a newer Cork to Limerick road (now the N20) was built, a coaching stop was opened and it was named "New Two-Pot-House" to distinguish it from the coaching stop on the older road.[5][6]
The local Roman Catholic church, St. Joseph the Worker church, is in the neighbouring townland of Twoposthouse (sometimes known as Old Twopothouse) and was built c. 1925.[7] The national (primary) school in New Twopothouse, Baltydaniel National School, had 209 pupils enrolled as of 2019.[8]
New Twopothouse was designated as a census town by the Central Statistics Office for the first time in the 2016 census,[3] at which time it had a population of 120 people.[1]
As of 2024. the village is served by many buses every day, including Bus Éirean route 51 which runs from Cork to Galway via Limerick.[9] There are also Local Link buses: route 522 between Charleville and Mallow,[10] and route 523 between Mitchelstown and Mallow.[11]
