Shelburne (barony)

Shelburne is a barony located in County Wexford, Ireland. It forms part of the traditional territory of Forth and Bargy, a region notable for its distinct history and linguistic heritage, once characterized by the now-extinct Forth and Bargy dialect of English. The barony is bordered by the baronies of Bargy to the north, Forth to the east, and Gorey to the west. The southern boundary is the coastline of the Celtic Sea.

The principal towns and villages located within Shelburne barony include Duncannon, Fethard-on-Sea, and Ramsgrange. Historically, the barony would have been an important administrative division, though its significance for local government purposes has diminished with modern reorganizations. However, it remains a recognized historical and geographical area within County Wexford.
