barony in the county of Kerry and province of Munster in Ireland, which gives title of Baron to the earls of Kerry; the village here of this name being their ancient seat, where the castle was erected. This seat stands agreeably on the river Brick, which is here cut into several pleasant canals, that adorn its plantations and gardens; the improvements are extensive, most of the villages and avenues terminating by different buildings, seats, and farm-houses. The tide flows up to the gardens, whereby boats of a considerable burden may bring up goods to the bridge near the house: here are two stone-bridges over the Brick, the oldest of which was built by Nicholas the third baron Lixnaw, who was the first person that made causeways to this place, the land being naturally wet.
