On the edge of the village are some fish processing plants. The main road is lined by some quaint houses with thatched roofs.
The village of Kilmore is located a mile or two back along the R739 and presumably was the original settlement.
Get in
Take the Rosslare road (N25) from Wexford and about half way between the two, turn off the N25 onto the R739 for Kilmore Quay.
