Ballylinan or Ballylynan (Irish: Baile Uí Láigheanáin) is a small village in County Laois, about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) from the border with County Kildare in Ireland. The name means "Lynan's town", though exactly who Lynan was is now forgotten.
Ballylinan is mainly a farmland area with no real industrialisation, although the building of many new housing developments has changed the area dramatically and increased its population. These developments, some still currently under construction, include "Rahin Wood", "The Village", "White Thorn Grove", "Cottage Gates", "The Crescent" and "Gracefield Manor".
The village has a number of shops, a church, a Garda (police) station, school, garage, and Murphys Pub (Skinners) and now has a new school, the old wynne park is now made into a playground. All of these establishments are on the one road: the N78
