Drumreagh Road north of Ballymoney
The Cooley Peninsula and Carlingford Lough can be seen in the background. In the Lough the border between the Republic and the UK has never been properly delineated. In the 1980s, during "The Troubles", a British Navy gun boat was stationed in the Carlingford Lough to stop the ferrying of arms and explosives by the IRA northwards from the Republic. On one famous occasion this led to a stand off with the Irish Navy when the British gun boat attempted to intercept the yacht of Charles Haughey, the flamboyant then Irish Prime Minister, which was sailing out of the port of Carlingford flying the Irish Tricolour. Haughey promptly summoned the Irish Naval Service patrol vessel L.E, Eithne - which was all too conveniently located close by - and which proceeded to block the passage of the Royal Navy ship.
