The bridge spans the youthful Moygannon River which enters the sea east of Warrenpoint. The junction with Coyles Hill road can be seen on the left hand side beyond the Bridge. Ballyvally is not a misprint - it has nothing to do with valleys - instead it is a corruption of the Irish name "Baile an bhealaigh" meaning townland of the gap/pass.
