- Kilbroney Valleys
The Ghann -
Kilbroney Valleys are two valleys cutting into upland terrain and
opening out into a narrow coastal plain adjoining Carlingford Lough.
There are large tracts of coniferous forestry on the east facing
slopes of Kilbroney Valley and Lower Ghann River, with pockets of
deciduous trees along the valley bottom. Kilbroney Park provides
attractive parkland. There is expanding urbanisation along the coastal
plain with the growth of Newry, Rostrevor and Warrenpoint resulting
in ribbon development stretching up the valley.
