Kilbarron (Irish: Chill Bharráin)[1] is a civil parish and a townland in the historical barony of Ormond Lower, County Tipperary in Ireland. It is located west of Borrisokane.[2]

The woods at Kilbarron form a part of Borrisokane Forest which consists of several widely dispersed small areas of woodland managed by Coillte, the state sponsored forestry company. [3]

The proposed new Dáil constituency of Offaly will incorporate twenty four electoral divisions from Tipperary North including Kilbarron.[4]
