The place

Ferrybank is a suburb of Waterford City in Ireland. Parts of Ferrybank, or "the village" as it is referred to locally, is under the political jurisdiction of Waterford City and County Council and thus an area of administration for Waterford City, on the northern bank of the River Suir, extending into County Waterford. However, other parts of Ferrybank extend into County Kilkenny and are administered by Kilkenny County Council. There has been a long-lasting boundary dispute between both jurisdictions, with debates and proposals ongoing for many decades.
