Kilcurl (historically Kylkeryl and Kilkirihill and Kirkirle; ) comprises the two townland areas of Kilcurl Anglesey and Kilcurl Feronsby. The townlands are situated one mile from its nearest village, Knocktopher, and located on a road to Carrickshock monument one mile away and two miles to Ballyhale. The village of Knocktopher is situated in the parish of Ballyhale, south County Kilkenny, in Ireland.
Kilcurl is primarily an area of rich farmland, but is also of historical significance due to the presence of a castle at Kilcurl Feronsby, the Tithe War memorial at nearby Carrickshock, the ancient church and graveyard ruins at Kilcurl Anglesey, and an Ogham stone on adjoining lands with Ballyboodan. Its history has been established from extensive records, archives, local historians, recordings and international research.
