Kinelarty (from Irish Cineál Fhaghartaigh 'Faghartach's kindred') is a former Irish district and barony in County Down, Northern Ireland. It lies east of the centre of the county, and is bordered by five other baronies: Iveagh Upper, Lower Half to the west; Lecale Upper to the south and south-east; Lecale Lower to the east; Castlereagh Upper to the north; and Iveagh Lower, Upper Half to the north-west.

It is centred historically on the ancient church at Loughinisland.
