Just north of Scarva is this scrapyard beside the Newry Canal towpath full of old tractors, cars, trailers etc. Most people regard it as an eyesore but I find it fascinating and for a restorer of old vehicles, especially tractors of which there are quite a few - mostly David Brown models - it could hide a few treasures. It was during tractor manufacturer David Brown's ownership from 1947 that the classic Aston Martin DB series was developed. You never know what you might unearth here.
