Ed Thanks for that very interesting site. There is another series of maps for EDs that I have found very helpful. They are on the www.logainm.ie site. If you click on information resources and scroll down to Historical maps -Boundaries - there are four maps that show all the administrative and electoral divisionsof the country.. Tipperary being in the middle of the country -as it were - one half of the county is in the South West map and the other in the South East.
