Annacotty is a suburban town on the outskirts of Limerick, Ireland, 7 km from the centre of the city. It is situated where the old N7 main road between Limerick and Dublin crosses the Mulkear River, 1 km upstream of where it flows into the River Shannon.
The village originally grew up around the grain mills which harnessed the water power of the River Mulkear. Clonkeen Church was established as a monastic site c. AD 600. One was beside the bridge itself and has now been restored as bar and restaurant and the second was 1 km upstream at Ballyclough. Annacotty Co-Operative Society was founded in the 1890s and butter was made at the creamery up to the 1960s when it was taken over by Black Abbey Co-operative of Adare . The creamery had been transformed into a Co-Operative hardware store which closed in August 2009. The building is currently operating as Irish-owned store Mr. Price.
