Graiguenamanagh is located on the shared boundary of County Kilkenny and County Carlow along the River Barrow and nestled in the steep sided valley between Brandon Hill in County Kilkenny and Mount Leinster in County Carlow. The wider settlement of Graiguenamanagh-Tinnahinch includes Tinnahinch within County Carlow. The Graiguenamanagh Town Centre First Plan has been created in conjunction with the Town Team and the local community, community groups and businesses of Graiguenamanagh, in addition to other key stakeholders.

The plan has had regard to the ongoing Graiguenamanagh-Tinnahinch Flood Relief Scheme for which a planning application is currently being prepared. Many of the actions contained in this TCF Plan are not considered to impact on the Flood Relief Scheme. However, detailed assessments will be carried out as actions are advanced to ensure feasibility. It is also considered that several actions may not advance until such a time as the Flood Relief Scheme has been completed.
