The townland maps at the Ballymena Library are very large and need to be copied in sections. The book store in Fairhill Shopping Center in Ballymena - Waterstone - last time I was there had street map book for all of Co. Antrim. I had one but my sister was trying to return it to me and Fedex lost it :( Planning to get a new one when I get there in a couple weeks. If you go to Multimap.com and put in Corkey you will find the map for that area. Ballyweany is not a town so it will not come up but it is west of there. A line due north from Ballymena falls between Corkey townlands (actually there are four townlands - Corkey lower or little, Corkey Middle, Corkey Love's Corkey, and Corkey north) ) Much of the Corkey area to the east has no roads, it looks like it is hills. It looks like Ballyweaney Townland would be west of A44, north of Cloughmills. My favorite places to stay are: http://www.ireland4you.freeservers.com/ Gladys Smith is the owner and she is great. It is in Carnlough on the sea. If you look at my blog, the picture at the top was taken from there. Also, the Leighinmohr House Hotel in Ballymena.
