Agharaskilly is a townland in the Parish of Tomregan, Barony of Loughtee Lower, County Cavan, Ireland. The townland name is an anglicisation of the Gaelic placename Achadh Ros Choille which means "Field of the Grove of Trees". Alternative meanings which have been suggested are "Cattlefield of the Cross of the Church", "Field of the Boar's Wood" and "Field of the Crossroads in the Wood". The earliest surviving mention of the townland is in a grant dated 10 August 1607 from King James I to Sir Garrett Moore of Mellifont where it is spelled Aghcrossekille. On the 1609 Ulster Plantation map of the Barony of Loughtee, where it is spelled Reskellew. A 1627 grant spells it as Aghocrossekeillie. The 1641 Rebellion Depositions spell it variously as Aghroskilly, Agheraskilly and Aighroskillow. A sub-division of the townland is named "Derryliffe" which is an anglicisation of the Gaelic placename Doire Life which means "The Oak-Wood of Liffey".
