The old Downpatrick road near Crossgar

Most of the five miles of the Belfast – Downpatrick road between Crossgar and the latter was realigned in the 60’s. Some on the same line and some on a new line. This is part of the old road, approximately half way between the two. It is called the “Crossgar Road” although it seems to be (slightly) closer to Crossgar than Downpatrick.
