In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Balmerino like this:
Balmerino, par. and vil., on Firth of Tay, N. Fifeshire, 3½ miles SW. of Dundee by water. 3431 ac., pop. 664; has remains of an abbey of the 13th century; post-town, Newport.
Balmerino is now part of FIFE Council. Click here for graphs and data of how FIFE has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Balmerino itself, go to Statistics.
