Ballinode, also known as Bellanode,[2] is a village situated approximately 6km (04miles) from Monaghan Town and 3km (02miles) from Scotstown in County Monaghan, Ireland. The village straddles the Monaghan Blackwater (a tributary of the River Corr, itself a tributary of the Ulster Blackwater) and has a Church of Ireland church with clock tower, cemetery, and church hall; one public house, and a takeaway. There also is an astroturf football pitch in the village.
"On the road in Ballinode" was an annual festival held in Ballinode throughout the 1990s. It attracted visitors from all over the county and had events such as cart racing, amusements and canoeing races on the river.
