New Line Court is an area in the town of Letterkenny in County Donegal, the Republic of Ireland. It is noted for being the oldest place name on a map of Donegal still to exist from Cromwellian times. It can be seen on the oldest map available of County Donegal, in The Public Services Centre in Letterkenny, that New Line Court existed in 1679 and is known to be the only place on that map to still exist.

A plaque was unveiled in the area in the Summer of 2007 by the then Minister for The Environment Dick Roche. The area will also be honoured by the Donegal County Council later this year for its significance.
