Killoscully (Irish: Cill Ó Scolaí)[1] is a small village, townland and civil parish in County Tipperary, Ireland.[2] Located approximately 8 kilometres (5 mi) northeast of Newport, overlooked by the Silvermine Mountains, the linear village has a Catholic church, graveyard, community centre and public house.[2] The church, the Church of the Sacred Heart, was built in 1874 and is in the parish of Ballinahinch and Killoscully in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cashel and Emly.[3][4] The local Gaelic Athletic Association club, Ballinahinch GAA, is also in Ballinahinch and Killoscully parish.[5] Some scenes for the fictional TV show, Killinaskully, were filmed in the area.[6]
