Jean asked > Can someone please tell me where Balimore, Kilmichael is located? Ballimore was as its name suggests - the town - the main settlement of Kilmichael in Kilmichael Glassary Parish and is where the Parish Church is to be found. At one time it consisted, in the mid 1800s, of some 30 odd crofts/holdings. If she inputs the Post Code PA31 8QD or its GB Grid Ref NR 855 931 into the 'Search For' box of the OS Web-site http://getamap.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/getamap/frames.htm she will find Ballimore's location. . Its GB Grid coordinates are 185500,693100 with which she can locate it on the Old Maps web-site http://www.old-maps.co.uk/IndexMapPage2.aspx Regards Les
