Dublin (barony)

Dublin (Irish: Barúntacht Bhaile Átha Cliath [l 1]) is one of the baronies in Ireland, an historical geographical unit of land.

Sandymount Strand at Irishtown forms the eastern boundary in a narrow strip of land extending as far as Blackrock.

The Barony of Rathdown, whose chief town is Dún Laoghaire, forms the bulk of its southern border.

Baronies continue to be regarded as officially defined units, but they are no longer used for many administrative purposes.

With the exception of St Bartholemew's, each of the remaining parishes only contributes a single townland to the barony.
