Castledockrell (Irish: Caisleán Dochraill) is a village in Co. Wexford, Ireland, between the towns of Bunclody and Enniscorthy, off the N80 road.
The place name suggests a historical castle, yet the remains of a scattered wall near the centre of the village is the only potential clue to this.[1]
As of the 2022 census, the population of the rural area of Castledockrell was 502.[2]
