The Cross Townland boundary stone at Rathfriland
The small town of Rathfriland is divided into four townlands: Cross, being the southernmost one. The other three are, Kiltarriff, Rossconor and Lissize. In all Ireland has well over 60,000 townlands. Many of these are further divided into subivisions. Rural dwellers on both sides of the Border take pride in their particular townland.

View South along Hilltown Road from the junction with Castlewellan Road, Rathfriland
The bus approaching the junction is the diverted Goldline Service 240 (Downpatrick to Newry). Normally the Newry-bound bus serves Rathfriland first before travelling on to Hilltown and Mayobridge. A month long programme of improvements to the B8 (Hilltown-Mayobridge section) has necessitated that the inward bound bus serves Hilltown first and then Rathfriland before taking the A25 via Shinn to Newry. In the mean time Mayobridge is served by the local No 33 bus which makes its way along the B7 directly to Mayobridge and omitting Hilltown.

Support for England's Football Team at Rathfriland
Such support is not universal amongst Loyalists. Many, in the absence of the Northern Ireland side, tend to support Holland, the homeland of William of Orange. This flag flies at the junction of the A25 and Hilltown Road.
