Killenard, Co. Laois

Killenard is a small village situated between the town of Portarlington and the village of Ballybrittas in the northeastern corner of County Laois.

The opening of the Heritage Golf and Country club finally attracted developers to the area and consequently there has been several new developments springing up in Killenard.
