River Bann - Upper Bann

Upper Bann

The Upper Bann rises in the Mourne Mountains in County Down and flows into Lough Neagh at Bannfoot, County Armagh. This stretch is one of the most popular coarse fishing rivers in Europe. Near Portadown it connects with the now disused Newry Canal, which once gave access south to the Irish Sea.
