Castletownshend (Irish: Baile an Chaisleáin) is a village about eight km from Skibbereen, in County Cork, Ireland. The village developed around a small 17th-century castle built by Richard Townsend, whose descendants still reside there. The main street of the town, lined with large homes from the 18th century, runs down a sharply sloped hill leading to Castlehaven Harbour and the castle. The Church of St Barrahane, built in 1826, overlooks the town. Its main architect was James Pain.
