Barrallier was the son of French naval surveyor. He was later employed by the British and came to Australia in April 1800. He was appointed an ensign in the New South Wales Corps in July 1800, and was made engineer and artillery officer in August 1801.

In March 1801 he sailed with Lieutenant James Grant in the Lady Nelson to further explore Bass Strait, and was responsible for the charting of Western Port and other parts of the coast. In June a voyage with Grant was made to the Hunter River, where Barrallier made a survey of Coal Harbour and part of the river.

In November 1802 he was directed by Governor Philip Gidley King to try to find a way over Blue Mountains to the west of Sydney. He did not succeed in crossing the range. His finishing point was "towards the head of Christy's Creek, about 15 or 16 miles in a direct line southerly from Jenolan Caves".

In the May 1803 he resigned from the New South Wales Corps and left for England, and in 1805 he was appointed a lieutenant in the 90th regiment. In 1806 he was at St Vincent, and in 1809 was present at the capture of the Island of Martinique.

He was made a captain in 1812. He spent some years making a military survey of the Island of Barbados, was present at the capture of Guadaloupe in 1814, and was appointed surveyor-general of the island.

The Bells Line of Road (State Route 40) is a major road in New South Wales and runs from North Richmond on the North-Western outskirts of Sydney to Bell in the Blue Mountains where it becomes Chifley Road.

The route was discovered in 1823 by Archibald Bell Jr but was rarely used until World War II. The road was improved between 1939 and 1949 as it was seen by the government as being an alternative to the Great Western Highway and could be used for war efforts.

Today, the route is still used as an alternate route across the Blue Mountains and is also a popular tourist drive

Scout Moor Wind Farm is the largest onshore wind farm in England. The wind farm, which was built for Peel Holdings, is powered by 26 Nordex N80 wind turbines. It has a total nameplate capacity of 65 MW of electricity, providing 154,000 MWh per annum, enough to serve the average needs of 40,000 homes. The site occupies 1,347 acres (545 ha) of open moorland between Edenfield, Rawtenstall and Rochdale, and is split between the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale in northern Greater Manchester and the Borough of Rossendale in south-eastern Lancashire. The turbines are visible from as far away as south Manchester, 15–20 miles (24–32 km) away. A protest group formed to resist the proposed construction, and attracted support from botanist and environmental campaigner David Bellamy. Despite the opposition, planning permission was granted in 2005, and construction began in 2007. Although work on the project was hampered by harsh weather, difficult terrain and previous mining activity, the wind farm was officially opened on 25 September 2008 after "years of controversy", at a cost of £50 million.
