Carlingford Lough

Carlingford Lough (; Ulster Scots: ''Carlinford Loch''〔(North-South Ministerial Council: 2010 Annual Report in Ulster Scots )〕 or ''Cairlinfurd Loch'')〔(Jordan's Castle – Department of the Environment )〕 is a glacial fjord or sea inlet that forms part of the border between Northern Ireland to the north and the Republic of Ireland to the south. On its northern shore is County Down and on its southern shore is County Louth. At its extreme interior angle (the northwest corner) it is fed by the Newry River and the Newry Canal.
The name is derived from the Old Norse ''Kerlingfjǫrðr'', which means "narrow sea-inlet of the hag".〔.〕 Historically it was called ''Cuan Snámh-Aighneach'', ''Snámh-Aighneach'' or ''Cuan Cairlinne'' in Irish.〔(''Annals of the Kingdom of Ireland: Index )'' (1856)〕 An older English name was ''Nury (Newry) Bay''.〔(Placenames Database of Ireland: Carlingford Lough ) (see archival records)〕
==Geography==
The Newry River and the Newry Canal link the lough to the nearby city of Newry (the canal continues on towards the River Bann and Lough Neagh; the river, under the name River Clanrye, loops around County Down). The only other glacial fjords in Ireland are Lough Swilly and Killary Harbour.〔Whittow, J.B. ''Geology and Scenery in Ireland''. Penguin, 1974.〕
On the northern coast, in County Down, are the coastal towns of Warrenpoint and Rostrevor, backed by the Mourne Mountains. On the southern coast are Omeath, Carlingford and Greenore backed by the Cooley Mountains, all on the Cooley Peninsula in County Louth.
