Ballinamallard's name first appears in the historical record more than 500 years ago, in the Annals of Ulster for the year 1500 — long before it was the small Fermanagh village it is today.
An ambush recorded in the Annals of Ulster
The Annals of Ulster record that in 1500, two Maguire princes were ambushed at Ballinamallard by the O'Neills, making it one of the earliest named references to the area anywhere in the historical record. Through the 16th century the land around it was 'mensal land,' set aside to support the Maguire court.
Methodism, a bridge, and a railway
Ballinamallard Bridge was built in 1750, John Wesley is recorded as having visited the area in 1769 and brought Methodism with him, and Ballinamallard Church followed in 1785. A railway station opened in 1854 and ran until 1957, and in recent years the village has repeatedly been named among Northern Ireland's best-kept villages.
