The painted Barnmeen Bridge on the A25
The red and black are the colours of the Down GAA (Gaelic Athletic Associations) teams. GAA is overwhelmingly supported by the Nationalist community and the painting of a village bridge is a sign that that village is strongly nationalist.
Rathfriland, some 3 kilometres east, on the other hand is a strongly Protestant and loyalist community.

St Colman's Catholic Church, Barnmeen
This church, dating from 1760, is the oldest of three in the parish Drumgath. and the oldest church in the Catholic Diocese of Dromore. It stands on a religious and cultural fracture zone. The tablet on the outside wall commemorates an earlier parish school burnt to the ground by the Black and Tans in 1921. A century earlier, as a commemorative window behind the altar reminds us, five men from the village, known as the Barnmeen Martyrs, were hung at Downpatrick Jail and another two transported to Australia after a kangaroo trial for the murder of Samuel Duncan, a Rathfriland Protestant who, on All Souls Day 1819, returning home from the races a little worse for wear was unwise enough to shout insults against the Pope. Some person unknown gave him an almighty thump from which he never recovered.
