    Then why is it called Kilkenny City and not Kilkenny Town? Its a small City, but it is a City. It has a population of 24,000!

    kilkenny does not have full city status, kilkenny likes to self promote itself as a city when it isnt really a city!

    And Armagh City :50:

    If Lisburn gets a mention we can't leave out Armagh haha, Lisburn would be a small town in most countries.

    Armagh is the historic capital of Ireland, also has a catherdal which i think makes any place into a city in Ireland as far as i know..

    Yep, and Armagh's tiny as well. In fact Lurgan and Portadown are both bigger.
