    It's just about visible through the trees in this streetview, but there's also a droneview available.

    Sharon Corbet We have bee talking here in Library Towers recently about the Stereo Pairs Collection and one of the suggestions was to ban Sharon Corbet from commenting on them! I did not support that proposal at the time, but I am having second thoughts :-) Well Done!

    Spelled Ballywillin on the 25". Not on the Sligo line, it is on the 1856 Inny Junction to Cavan line. Eiretrains linked above says The line lost its passenger service in 1947 but regular goods services survived until 1960, which is when O'Dea visited. The line was single track for the most part, but the 25" shows multiple tracks at the station platforms/goods shed.

    Flickr is sometimes amazing! In 2013 via 2c.., who includes this: "Local Lore holds that Micheal Collins the famous Irish patriot stole through this station countless times to meet his nearby love, while conducting the “little war” with his invisible army. Collins was reputed to be a regular visitor, albeit in secret to Ballwillan to visit his love in nearby Granard. ..." Confirmation required !

    Logainm says the name is from Béal Átha an Mhuilinn, Mill ford. There is a Corn Mill at the NE of the townland on the 6" and 25" map, gone today.
