STEENSON'S BRIDGE ON THE NEWRY CANAL The 20-mile trip follows the towpath along the western bank of the Newry Canal and is part of National Cycle Network Route 9. The canal historically linked Lough Neagh via the River Bann to the town of Newry, carrying on through the Newry ship canal to Carlingford Lough and the Irish Sea. It opened in 1742, had become largely derelict by 1939 and was formally abandoned in 1949.

This bike ride is the perfect opportunity to explore the important archaeological sites around Scarva, the extensive linen history of Gilford and Tandragee, the famous and infamous characters who passed this way, the monastic and commercial importance of Newry and the superb engineering displayed in the canal itself.
