Muskerry West ( ) is one of the
baronies of
Ireland, an historical geographical unit of land. Its chief town is
Macroom. It is one of 24 baronies in the county of
Cork. It may also be viewed as a half barony because some time before the 1821 census data, it was divided from its other half -
Muskerry East. Other neighbouring baronies include
Duhallow to the north (whose chief town is
Newmarket) and the
Barony of Carbery East (West Division) to the south (whose chief town is
Dunmanway).
