    Barnvalla,
    Ballyduff,
    Co. Waterford, Barony of
    Coshmore and Coshbride, is the name, townland, and Barony of my district. There are twelve families in the district with five in every family. Most of the houses are thatched or Galvanised.
    Barnvalla got its name, because it is the top of the town. There are three old people living in it. They can tell stories in Irish and English. The land is hilly. The river Blackwater flows by Ballyduff.
