Former County constituency for the House of Commons
1885–1922
Number of members	One
Created from	County Cork

Mid Cork, a division of County Cork, was a parliamentary constituency in Ireland, represented in the Parliament of the United Kingdom. From 1885 to 1922 it returned one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

Until the 1885 general election the area was part of the Cork County constituency. From 1922 it was not represented in the UK Parliament, as it was no longer in the UK.

This constituency comprised the central part of County Cork.

Charles Kearns Deane Tanner died in office and was succeeded by Daniel Desmond Sheehan (Irish Parliamentary Party) at a constituency by-election on 17 May 1901, where he stood unopposed.

After being returned unopposed in the 1906 general election, Sheehan was expelled from the IPP on the grounds of being a "factionist" and, in protest and to re-emphasize his public support, he resigned the seat and re-stood as an Independent (Labour) candidate in the resulting by-election.
