Ramble along the ‘old new’ Newry Road
This video by Don Johnston takes the viewer along the old Newry Road, just north of the Ballymascanlan roundabout. The Macneill family were very influential in the area and a flaxmill and several limekilns are included. Other local families intermarried with the Macneills. Parts of the earlier Dundalk-Newry (1766 and 1777) roads also feature.
