The Rathcormac massacre, also known as the Gortroe massacre, was an incident during the Tithe War in Ireland which took place on 18 December 1834 near the village of Bartlemy, County Cork close to the town of Rathcormac. Approximately 250 Irish tenant farmers confronted a group of roughly 100 British Army soldiers and Royal Irish Constabulary policemen who were escorting a distraining party attempting to collect tithes owed to a Church of Ireland rector. The farmers attacked the soldiers and policemen who responded after forty-five minutes by opening fire on the farmers, killing between 12 and 20 people and wounding roughly 45.
