Cooley Peninsula
The Cooley Peninsula (,〔(Placenames Database of Ireland )〕 older ''Cuailghe'')〔Rhys, John. ''Lectures on the Origin and Growth of Religion'' (1892), p.140〕 is a hilly peninsula in County Louth, Ireland, which includes towns such as Omeath, Carlingford and Greenore. ==Geography== The peninsula contains the Cooley Mountains, the highest of which, Slieve Foy, is also the highest peak in County Louth at 588m. To the north is Carlingford Lough and the border with Northern Ireland; to the south is Dundalk Bay. The peninsula is ringed by the R173 regional road. The peninsula is geologically diverse, with 440-million-year-old Silurian greywacke sandstones in the north west and south west, 340-million-year-old limestones in the east, and 60-million-year-old volcanic rocks forming the Cooley Mountains.
