Blayney Townley-Balfour or Blayney Townley Balfour, born Blayney Townley (1705–1788) was member of the Irish House of Commons for Carlingford in 1760 and again from 1761 to 1776.[1] He took the surname Balfour to inherit property in County Fermanagh from his nephew William Charles Balfour.[2]

He died at his country house, Townley Hall, in County Louth. His son, also Blayney, predeceased him; his grandson, also Blayney Townley-Balfour, inherited his property.[2]
