Furbo, County Galway

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Furbo (Na Forbacha in Irish) is a village in Connemara in County Galway which lies along the coast between Barna and Spiddal. Although officially in the Gaeltacht, English is more commonly used in day to day life.

Although the village is approximately 12km from Galway city centre it has maintained its village status quite successfully in recent years due to strong opposition to development from locals.
