Murrintown (Irish: Baile Mhúráin), also spelled Murntown, is a small village located in the southeast of County Wexford, in Ireland, close to Wexford town. It is part of the parish of Piercestown.
Murrintown village contains a shop (closed since December 2014), a pub, a primary school, an R.C. church, a large community centre and a childcare centre. A new cemetery opened in February 2018.
The village and its environs contain a number of buildings dating from the 18th century, several of which are farmhouses. Murrintown House is now a dwelling but in the past has been both a hostelry and a shop. As a hostelry, it was frequented by soldiers during the 1798 rebellion. Beechwood is a Georgian-era estate house sitting on 50 acres of woodland, with various farm buildings. This too played a role in 1798. After having been unoccupied for several years, it was sold in 2017 and the new owners have embarked on a restoration programme.
