The junction with Barrack Street on the Armagh Road
Barrack Street, as the name suggests was the site of the British Army barracks in Newry, Housed in the disused White Linen Hall from the 1839s onwards it accommodated garrisons of 600 and more soldiers. With the rapidly deteriorating security situation in the 1970s and the need for widespread use of helicopters the garrison was relocated to another former linen mill, that at the nearby village of Bessbrook. Housing Executive social housing now occupy the site of the former barracks at Newry.

Archway of the former Linen Hall
Built in 1783 the Linen Hall was in the early 19thC converted into a large and permanent military barracks which survived until the 1923 when the Army moved to the nearby village of Bessbrook. In its glory days Newry Barracks had a complement of 600 men. After the withdrawal of the military the barracks became an inner city working class housing estate. In recent decades these run down dwellings have been replaced by modern houses.
