Rock (from Irish Carraig) is a small village in east County Tyrone, Northern Ireland located approximately 5 miles south-west of Cookstown. The village and surrounding area is located mainly within the parish of Desertcreat.

Rock St. Patrick's GAC is the local Gaelic Athletic Association club.

The club has won the Ulster Junior Club Football Championship on three occasions (2007, 2014 and 2016).

The village name was recorded originally as Baile na Carraige. A stone quarry later operated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. A Mass rock exists in Tullyodonnell, half a mile from the village.
