Youghal is situated at the mouth of the Blackwater one
of Ireland's best known salmon fishing rivers. Youghal was part of a huge
swathe of lands granted to Sir Walter Raleigh. His home, Myrtle Grove still
stands there (open to the public). Tradition has it that here he smoked the
first cigarette and planted the first potatoes. The name Youghal derives from
the Irish "Yew Wood". In Youghal, yew wood was used to feed the ironworks
of Richard Boyle during the 17th century.
