Kylebrack Neighbourhood Guide
Galway
Kylebrack is a small rural locality in east County Galway, within the H62 Eircode area and close to the county boundary with County Clare. It lies among dispersed farmland and upland countryside, with larger services generally found in nearby Gort, Loughrea, Woodford and surrounding villages. The area is well placed for access to the wider east Galway and west Clare countryside, but daily travel is typically car-dependent.
