Description




Galway er et baroni i Irland, der omfatter Galway by og de omkringliggende dele af County Galway. Baroniet er identisk med det tidligere amt for byen Galway, et virksomhederamt oprettet ved byens charter fra 1610 og ophævet ved Local Government Act 1898.
Byens charter fra 1610 gjorde byen til et selvstændigt amtsområde adskilt fra Galway amtet generelt, og definerede omfanget af byens amt som omfavnende den kommunale by Galway og dens "liberties" i to miles omkring, ekskluderende St Francis Abbey og St Augustine's Fort. I 1687 blev grænsen fordoblet til fire miles. Omkring 1770 blev amtsgrænserne yderligere udvidet, og i 1871 viste folketællingen, at dets areal var 22.483 acres. Den parlamentariske gazetteer fra 1846 beskriver grænserne som groft en halvcirkel med en radius på 4 miles centreret om Galway byen, med Galway bugt mod syd, fra Forramoyle i vest, gennem Lough Inch til den sydlige bred af Lough Corrib i nord, så sydøst til nord for Killeen, og ned til bugten 11⁄2 miles øst for Merlin Park.
