Ballycanew (historically Ballyconway, from Irish: Baile Uí Chonnmhaí)[2] is a small rural village in Ireland.

It is situated in County Wexford, on the R741 regional road 8 km (5.0 mi) south of Gorey.

The old creamery was once a thriving industry, with an average of 2.5 million imperial gallons (11,000 m3) of milk supplied per annum.

[citation needed] In June 1965, a Bronze Age grave was discovered in the Ballycanew Parish.

This grave yielded a slightly damaged food vessel and broken human bones.
