Loughcullen

Loughcullen is a small area of County Kilkenny in Ireland, close to the border of County Waterford and 12km from Waterford City. It is located in the town of Kilmacow. Loughcullen consists generally of land owned by farms in neighbouring Big Wood, however Loughcullen used to be famous in the region for the Loughcullen Creamery which served all local farmers. The creamery has now closed and is now a supplier to local agricultural workers.

Recently, Loughcullen has been the interest to many companies looking to develop on the land. Two plots of land were sold to developers who built two new homes there in 2005.

Loughcullen can be located in the valleys between Big Wood and Gaulstown and is notable in the region for being very supportive of the Kilkenny Cats hurling team. On match days and particularly when Kilkenny is participating in the All Ireland Cup final, Loughcullen is transformed into Amber and Black, the colours of the hurling team.
