Newry City was drawn in the summer of 2004. Boasting its newly conferred status as a city this bustling port town is re-establishing itself as an important trade town on the east coast of Ireland. The imposing Town Hall (to the right of centre) constructed in 1893 is unusual in that it was built on a three-arched bridge astride the Clanrye River. The reason was reputedly to settle the rivalry between the people of Armagh and Down as to which County the Town Hall should be sited (the river is the county border). Needless to say this rivalry is still prevalent, particularly in sporting circles.
