Town in County Wicklow, Ireland
Newtownmountkennedy is a small town in County Wicklow, Ireland.

It acquired its present name in the mid-seventeenth-century, when Sir Robert Kennedy, M.P. for Kildare, made it his principal residence. It is just off the N11 road to Wexford, just south of Kilpedder and south-west of Greystones. It is about 15 km (9.3 mi) north of Wicklow town, 15 km (9.3 mi) south of Bray and approximately 35 km (22 mi) from Dublin. This town has one of the longest place names in Ireland, so is sometimes abbreviated to NTMK.
