Dunderrow (Irish: Dún Darú, meaning 'oak fort')[2] is a small village in County Cork, Ireland. It is 5 km north-west of Kinsale, on the R605 road between Kinsale and Innishannon. Dún Darú, anglicised as Dunderrow, means the fort of the oak-plain, with the site of the fort (dún) for which it is named located to the south of the village.[3] The village is in a townland and civil parish of the same name.[2]

Dunderrow National School, in the centre of the village, was built in 2000 to replace an earlier 19th century building.[4] To the east of the village is Dunderrow cemetery, formerly the site of a 19th-century Church of Ireland church (no longer standing).[5][6]

An Eli Lilly facility is situated near Dunderrow on approximately 50 hectares (120 acres) of land.[7] It commenced operations in 1981.[8]
