Like its neighbour Monaseed 4 km to the west, Hollyfort is currently[when?] experiencing the addition of housing, in the form of small housing estates.[citation needed] Unlike Monaseed, the Hollyfort developments are generally within the village area. Hollyfort has a pub, Cooney's, as well as a few abandoned buildings, such as the old bakery and petrol station.[citation needed]
