Ballindrait (Template:Langx, meaning 'town of the bridge')[2] is a townland, village and census town in County Donegal, Ireland. Located near Lifford, the village and townland of Ballindrait is in the civil parish of Clonleigh and the barony of Raphoe North.[2][3] The Burn Dale flows through the centre of Ballindrait.[4]

Ballindrait (Baile an Droichid) was designated as a census town by the Central Statistics Office (CSO) for the first time in the 2016 census,[5] at which time it had a population of 170 people.[6][7]

The former Ballindrait railway station served the area from 1909 until 1960, and was on the Strabane and Letterkenny Railway line.[8] The R264 regional road passes through Ballindrait village,[9] where it crosses the Burn Dale on Ballindrait Bridge (originally built c. 1740).[4][10]

The Presbyterian church (within the village) was built c. 1810.[11] St. Patrick's Church, usually known locally as Murlog Chapel, the local Catholic church (located outside the village in Murlough townland), was built in the 1960s to replace an earlier mid-19th century church.[12][13] Also in Murlough townland is Ballindrait Windmill (built c. 1874).[14]
