Newry Journal

This old photo shows the elect of the town in the early 60s celebrating the elevation to the Bishopric of Monrovia of Newry’s Castle Street man Francis Carroll.    A list of names will follow!

This is a panoramic aerial view of the Millvale Road, Bessbrook area.  Enjoy!

In this panoramic view of Merchant’s Quay and the Canal Court Hotel, you can actually see the cars and the people on the street!

Distant hills panorama, from Carnbane towards Markethill.

A third panorama from Martin’s recent helicopter flight.   The photo cuts across the main Armagh Road!

Another Martin Auden panorama for your enjoyment!

This panorama of the Armagh Road area was taken by Martin Auden, to whom we are most grateful!  Extreme right, middle is MacDonalds sign in yellow, 5Ways roundabout and Supermarket and Norbrook.

Five minutes or less from Newry town and you encounter all the beauty of nature in this secluded spot.   The road is narrow and winding – thank goodness – for that helps to preserve its special quality!

There is an Upper and a Lower Fathom Road.  This is the view from about halfway along the latter.  Both emerge close to Clontygora just where the Council has sited a wonderful viewpoint – now closed courtesy of our vandals!

This time our view is from Ballinalack Road on the western edge of Camlough Lake.  The quarry in the distance figured in our geological survey of this area.
