Dr. Bernard MacMahon (1680–27 May 1747) was Bishop of Clogher 1727–1737 and Archbishop of Armagh 1738–1747.

MacMahon was appointed as Roman Catholic Bishop of Clogher on 17 August 1727,[1] following the death of his predecessor, Hugh MacMahon. Bernard MacMahon was transferred to the position of Archbishop of Armagh on 8 November 1737.[2] In 1741, he would go into hiding as a result of him not promoting a priest to a parish; this would result in a warrant being issued for his arrest.[3][4] He died in Armagh on 27 May 1747.[5]
