The Townlands of Kilkenny County

County Kilkenny was divided into 1,683 townlands (circa 1851). A townland represents one of the smallest geographic units in Ireland, and vary in size anywhere from a few acres to over 3,000 acres. The average size of a townland in Kilkenny is probably between 300 and 350 acres, and their boundaries often follow landownership patterns. Because townland names were often duplicated in different areas of Kilkenny county, the list below is only meant to represent the unique names of the 1851 Kilkenny townlands. Variations in townland names were common in historical reference. For example, Kilcraggan was referred to as Kilcreggan and Killcroghan. There are townland names and boundaries that have also changed in the course of history. For example, Castlehale was a townland which existed for over 300 years, but was replaced and reduced shortly after the Cromwellian confiscations of the 16th century, becoming Rossenarra Demesne and parts of neighboring townlands.
