Summary edit

Description
English: Disused Newry Canal at Poyntzpass.


The Newry canal connected Lough Neagh (via the River Bann) to the town of Newry and then through the Newry ship canal to Carlingford Lough and the Irish Sea. The canal opened in 1742, had become largely derelict by 1939 and was formally abandoned in 1949. This is the overgrown section of the canal at Poyntzpass on the Lough Neagh side of the lock.
