It was formed by 1672.[2] It is bordered by County Roscommon to the west. It also borders two other Westmeath baronies: Kilkenny West (to the north–east) and Clonlonan (to the south-east). The largest centre of population in the barony is the town of Athlone. GeographyBrawny has an area of {{convert|12069.4|acre|km2}}.[2] The barony contains a small part of the southern end of the second largest lake on the River Shannon, Lough Ree. It also includes part of the eastern half of the Shannon as far as Long Island to the south. The River Shannon is the longest river in Ireland at {{convert|360.5|km|mi|0|abbr=in}}.[3] Several significant roads pass through the barony. The M6, a motorway forming part of the N6 Dublin to Galway national primary road, the N55 national secondary road connecting Athlone to Cavan and the N62 connecting the M6 to the M8. A railway line carrying several of the national rail company Iarnród Éireann's intercity services also passes through the barony. Civil parishThe barony is unusual in Ireland in having a single civil parish - St Mary's - that comprises the entire barony.[4] It should not to be confused with an Ecclesiastical parish of the same name.
