Inistioge (/ɪnɪʃˈtiːɡ/; Irish: Inis Tíog[2]) is a small village in County Kilkenny, Ireland. Historically, its name has been spelt as Ennistioge, Ennisteage, and in other ways. The village is situated on the River Nore, 25 kilometres (16 mi) southeast of Kilkenny. Inistioge is in a townland and civil parish of the same name.[2]
Situated along the River Nore, Inistioge is entered by crossing a 10 arch stone bridge. The village has a tree-lined square and a number of 18th and 19th century homes along the river. Inistioge and its village green have been used as a filming location for a number of films. Inistioge developed significantly during the 18th and 19th centuries as a part of the Tighe families' Woodstock Estate.[3]
