Stoneyford, officially Stonyford (Irish: Áth Stúin)[2] is a small town in County Kilkenny, Ireland. It lies on the N9 Waterford road some 14 km south of Kilkenny City. Stoneyford is a part of the parish of Aghaviller in the Diocese of Ossory.

Two small streams run through the village, one to the west and the second to the north of the village. Both streams join the north of the village and continue northwards as a tributary to the King's River, which is less than 500 metres north of the village. It merges with the River Nore to the east of Stoneyford. The King's River contains salmon and is used regularly for fishing.[citation needed]
