List of baronies of Ireland
Encyclopedia
This is a list of the baronies
of Ireland
. Baronies were subdivisions of counties
, mainly cadastral
but with some administrative functions prior to the Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898
.
Every point in Ireland is in precisely one of the listed divisions. However, the municipal area of the four cities with barony status in 1898 has extended since then into the surrounding baronies. Prior to 1898, the baronies around Dublin City were shrunk according as they ceded land to the expanding city; but there is now land which is both within the current city boundaries and within one of the pre-1898 county baronies. Notably, the Barony of Dublin, created in 1842, is entirely within the city, although still separate from the Barony of Dublin City.
Creation date is sometimes specified as an upper bound (and possibly a lower bound) rather than the precise year:
Notes:
The Municipal Corporations (Ireland) Act 1840
(3 & 4 Vict. c.108) separated the rural hinterland or "liberties" from some of the counties corporate, restricting their jurisdiction to the relevant municipal town, borough, or city. The Counties and Boroughs (Ireland) Act 1840 (3 & 4 Vict. c.109) provided that the rural area would form a new barony of the adjacent county until the county Grand Jury should decide to allocate it to an existing barony. The reallocation happened quickly in some cases, slower in others, and not at all in three cases: the baronies of Cork
and Galway, and the Louth barony of Drogheda.

Final list
The final catalogue of baronies numbered 331. A figure of 273 is also quoted, by combining those divided into half-baronies, as by East/West, North/South, or Upper/Middle/Lower divisions.Every point in Ireland is in precisely one of the listed divisions.

The reallocation happened quickly in some cases, slower in others, and not at all in three cases: the baronies of Cork
