The port is certainly close to the county boundary as per this image from Google Maps
Dear Editor,
May I take you to task over a recent article in the Kilkenny People wrongly describing Belview Port in Waterford Harbour as ‘Kilkenny Port’. Mr Matthews, when will you lot in that one-horse county you call Kilkenny every face up to reality?
In all known sea-faring maps, Belview Port is part of the Port of Waterford. Not Kilkenny. Your so-called strip on the River Suir is just an other attempt by your people to claim something from Waterford that was nor will ever be yours.
PS: Mr Matthews, I have no axe to grind with Kilkenny folk. I’m happy to say that some of my best friends are from Kilkenny.
Regards,
Patrick Fitzgerald,
Waterford City
