Turners Cross takes its name from an important junction where the road from Cork to Kinsale separated from the road to Carrigaline. As one of the older areas of Cork, housing of any significance was first recorded in 1759 mainly around the Evergreen Road area. The suburb continued to grow with new housing continually developed in the Turners Cross area until the 1950’s when at that stage there was little remaining spare land in the area. It is now a sought-after location as one of the mature residential parts of Cork city and is proving popular to home owners seeking the combination it offers of closeness to the city, character filled homes and a vibrant community.
