Newry
A hall between two counties
A town hall built on a bridge over the Clanrye River.
Background
Newry Town Hall, opened in 1893, is built on a bridge over the Clanrye River, which marks the boundary between County Armagh and County Down.
A popular local story says it was placed there to settle a dispute between the two counties over which should host it. That tale is folklore and is told here as such, not as recorded fact.
