Stickens is a townland in the parish of Caragh in Co. Kildare, Ireland.
Stickens is located a quarter of a mile past the village of Caragh when travelling north-west on the R409. The townland is situated to the left of the road and is accessed by a cul de sac that is entered onto by taking the first left turn having travelled past the church in Caragh village.
There are about 30 houses in Stickens and various farms but no silvermine.
On some records the spelling "Stickins" appears. There is little verification as to what the correct spelling should be and what is the origin of the name.
