 | New Developments: The Bay Hotel at the estuary of the Dun River has gone and has been raplaced with a new development of 80 holiday apartments...these are permanent, privately owned residences, many occupied by folk from Belfast who used to come to Cushendun regularly and who previouslky owned mobile homes or rented temporary accommodation locally. The development is known as "The Bay". |
Look - No animals ! In 2001 the Middle Glens farms were visited with the tragedy of suspected foot-and-mouth disease and all stock in a kilometer-wide swath of territory from Cushendall to Cushendun were slaughtered as a precautionary measure. This was the scene at Cushendun in May 2001. |  |
 | Also known as the Glen of the Cuckoo, Glendun is one of the prettiest of the Nine Glens of Antrim and this view was taken looking up the glen from the famous viaduct which carries the Coast Road northwards from Cushendall to Ballycastle. Sheep farming with some cattle is the main local occupation, plus an increasing tourist trade as more and more people discover the beauty of the Glens. |
