The branch line from Downpatick to Ardglass crossed the head of the Killough Harbour inlet by means of a causeway. It then proceeded under the Killough Bridge to enter Killough Station, the site of which is now occupied by the Coney Island Caravan Park. Killough village and the station were linked by Station Road.
