Stone walling, Main Street, Armoy, Ballymoney, County Antrim

Long curving stretch of low rubble-built walling, possibly dating from the early to mid 1800s. The walling runs along much of the east side of Main Street, Armoy, enclosing the street from the steep river bank, (of the Bush River), on the other side. The walling stretches from the end of Church Street in the S and curves in a NE direction, ending some metres before the junction of Main Street and Drones Road. It is relatively low (roughly 1m or less) and constructed of random rubble with a rough rubble parapet. A significant portion of the wall to the S end has been reconstructed in relatively recent years (possibly the mid to later 1990s) using squared rubble. Close to the N end of the wall there is a small gap allowing pedestrian access to steps leading down to a path running alongside the river. A recently laid footpath made up of small square-ish paving ‘stones’ runs alongside the wall.
