Farbill is a townland in County Westmeath comprising agricultural areas, scattered woodlands, and traditional rural settlements spread across the landscape. The area is connected by country roads and pathways that link different sections of this Irish locality together.
This townland developed as part of Ireland's historical system of land organization, where the countryside was divided into small administrative divisions. This ancient structure has remained intact over the centuries and continues to shape how the area is understood today.
