Carlow (barony)

Carlow (Irish: Ceatharlach) is a barony in County Carlow, Ireland.

Carlow barony takes its name from the town of Carlow (Irish: Ceatharlach, of disputed meaning).

Carlow barony is bordered to the east by Rathvilly; to the southeast by Forth; to the south by Idrone East; to the southeast by Idrone West (all the preceding baronies are also in County Carlow); to the north by Kilkea and Moone, County Kildare; and to the northwest by Slievemargy, County Laois.

The Uí Bairrche are noted early in this barony. The O'Dolans were hereditary brehons of Leinster and sited here.
