Loughinsholin (from Irish Loch Inse Ui Fhloinn 'lough of O'Lynn's island'[1]) is a barony in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland.[2] Its southeast borders the northwest shore of Lough Neagh, and itself is bordered by seven other baronies: Dungannon Upper to the south; Strabane Upper to the west; Keenaght and Coleraine to the north; Kilconway, Toome Upper, and Toome Lower to the east.[2] It was formed largely on the extent of the northern part of the medieval Irish túath of Uí Tuirtri.
The Sperrin Mountains rise to the west of Loughinsholin, with Slieve Gallion and Carntogher the two most notable mountains of the range in the barony.[1] The Ballinderry River flows along the southern boundary of the barony, with the River Moyola cutting through the middle, both emptying into Lough Neagh. The largest settlement in the barony is the town of Magherafelt.
