List of civil parishes of Ireland

Civil parishes in Ireland are based on the medieval Christian parishes, adapted by the English administration and by the Church of Ireland.

[1] The parishes, their division into townlands and their grouping into baronies, were recorded in the Down Survey undertaken in 1656–58 by surveyors under William Petty.

The purpose was primarily cadastral, recording land boundaries and ownership.

[15] Other sources treat Cloncurry, Nurney and Tully all as one civil parish each.

[15] Additionally, some include the civil parishes that no longer exist.
