Fartullagh (Template:Langx),[1] previously Tyrrells country,[2] is a barony in south–east County Westmeath, in Ireland. It was formed by 1542.[3] It is bordered by County Offaly to the south and three other baronies: Moycashel (to the west), Moyashel and Magheradernon (to the north) and Farbill (to the north–east).
Geography
Fartullagh has an area of 39,418.4 acres (159.521 km2).[3] The barony contains the eastern half of one large lake, Lough Ennell, the remainder is contained within the barony of Moyashel and Magheradernon. The River Brosna flows through Lough Ennell, eventually connecting with the River Shannon. The M6 motorway passes to the south of Rochfortbridge and Tyrrellspass, which, together with the M4, links Dublin with Galway.
