This park is used as a venue for outdoor concerts. It was previously the site of the Cory Square RUC Barracks. The station was mortared by the IRA in February 1985 resulting in the death of nine officers and the injuring of many more. http://www.newry.ie/news/latest-news/3164-30th-anniversary-of-corry-square-mortar-attack
