Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Use Hiberno-English Template:Infobox UK constituency
Connemara, a division of County Galway, was a UK Parliament constituency in Ireland, returning one Member of Parliament (MP) from 1885 to 1922.
Prior to the 1885 general election the area was part of the County Galway constituency. From 1922, on the establishment of the Irish Free State, it was not represented in the UK Parliament.
Boundaries
This constituency comprised the north-western part of County Galway, roughly corresponding to the region of Connemara. In 1918, with the abolition of the Galway borough constituency, the constituency was redrawn to include the town of Galway and exclude an area which had been transferred to County Mayo under the 1898 Local Government Act.
1885–1918: The baronies of Ballynahinch, Moycullen, and Ross.
1918–1922: The rural districts of Clifden and Oughterard, the district electoral divisions of Barna, Furbogh, Kilcummin, Killannin, Moycullen, Selerna, Slievenaneena, Spiddle and Tullokyne in the rural district of Galway, and the urban district of Galway.
