About New Ross
New Ross is a historic market town on the River Barrow in south County Wexford, close to the Kilkenny and Waterford borders. Its riverside setting, medieval streets and strong local community give it a distinctly traditional character, while newer residential areas extend out from the compact town centre. Day-to-day life is convenient, with primary and secondary schools, shops, supermarkets, cafés, pubs and restaurants all serving the town and surrounding villages. St. Michael’s Theatre provides a valued cultural venue, and Library Park and Pearse Park offer accessible green and recreation spaces. The town is well placed for commuting by road towards Waterford, Wexford and Kilkenny, with regular bus services and the N25 nearby. Residents also have access to sports clubs, community organisations and river-oriented leisure, while nearby Glenmore, Campile, The Rower, Rosbercon, Palace and Ballinaboola broaden the choice of countryside and village amenities.
