Introduction

Carnmoney Civil Parish covers a mainly urban area of County Antrim north of Belfast. Historically it was a rural area with several villages surrounded by farmland but in the 20th century many residential and industrial developments transformed the area. Carnmoney parish has an area of 37.7 km² or 14.6 square miles.
Belfast lough defines the eastern boundary of the parish. The M2, M5 and A8(M) motorways and A2 and A6 main roads pass through the parish as do many minor roads. The railway lines from Belfast to Londonderry and to Larne also pass through the parish.
Carnmoney Civil Parish is in the historic barony of Belfast Lower. The Irish name is Carn Monaidh meaning 'cairn of the hill'.[1]

The Townlands of Carnmoney Civil Parish

The townlands in Carnmoney Parish (Carn Monaidh) are those taken from Carnmoney Parish on Logainm.ie and validated against townlands on the 1851, 1871 and 1901 Lists of Towns and Townlands and Griffiths valuations data. A link is provided in the notes for the 1901 and 1911 census. Please note that these may not always work if the townland was not available on the census in question. The census site may also substitute a similar name so be prepared for unexpected results! Similar for Griffith's valuation links which may show multiple names.
