There are three Seacon Townlands in Antrim - Beg, More and Lower largely between Seacon Road and the A26, with Fort Town to the NE, all in Ballymoney Parish. Seacon Lower and Seaconmore extend into Londonderry. I've added them to the map. To find Seacon Road, search for "Seacon Road, UK" (it is just north of the A26 as Mike says). BTW, to search for place names select "Map" as the search type. Exact, Soundex and Partial options are for searching for Admin district. Note that in Antrim, all Townlands are in the database, even though only a few are mapped. Also note that you can click on a district's Icon to open it's info window and then on "Click here for More Information" to get list of all of the Admin Districts it is in and all sub Districts in it.
