Northern Ireland Placenames - origins and meanings

This is a very cool site! Any of us with Irish ancestry has probably struggled with figuring out the meanings of the associated placenames ... all those 'bally' names for instance really do have origins. http://www.placenamesni.org/

Oh yeah, and don't miss the associated maps!! Very cool, and totally FREE!! Note: this is for Northern Ireland placenames only.


Cheerio,
Pat
