Rosclogher is a barony in County Leitrim, Ireland.
Rosclogher barony takes its name from the townland of Rosclogher ("stony wooded height"), which gives its name to Rosclogher Castle.[1]
Rosclogher is found in north County Leitrim, reaching from its 3 km (2 mi) of Atlantic coastline (the least coastline of any coastal county), past Lough Melvin, east of the Kilcoo River, up to Saddle Hill.
Rosclogher barony is bordered to the south by Drumahaire, County Leitrim; to the north by Tirhugh, County Donegal; to the east by Magheraboy and Clanawley, County Fermanagh; and to the west by the barony of Carbury, County Sligo.
