Moyadam (from Irish Maigh Doinn, meaning 'Donn’s plain')[1] is a townland of 685 acres in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It is situated in the civil parish of Grange of Nilteen and the historic barony of Antrim Upper.[2]
In the Papal Taxation c.1306 the name of the townland is recorded as Maudone, the name of a church site. Its name is variously recorded as Ballimoyden in 1605 and Ballymoyeden in 1621.[1]
