Ashford, historically known as Ballymacahara, is a village County Wicklow, Republic of Ireland. It lies on the R772 regional road. The Vartry River flows under the road in the village centre. Until recently Ashford was on the main Dublin - Wexford route, the N11, but was bypassed by the new N11 in 2004. This has made a great change to the traffic problem that was before the bypass was installed. Ashford is about 3 km (1.9 mi) north of Rathnew, which is on the outskirts of Wicklow Town.
