Halfway is situated on the L2231, just off the N71, close to the neighbouring village of Ballinhassig. Ballinhassig Garda station is located in Halfway.[2] Halfway formerly had two pubs; however, there is now only the Ramble Inn pub.[citation needed] There is also an angling shop.[3]
The annual Halfway Vintage Rally, a meeting of vintage car owners and enthusiasts, takes place over one weekend in September.[citation needed] Road bowling is sometimes played on the national road between the villages of Halfway and Ballinhassig.[4]
Evidence of ancient settlement in the area includes several ringforts in the neighbouring townlands of Gortnaclogh, Annagh Beg and Rathroe.[5]
