KILLEVEY, or KILSLEVE, a
parish, partly in the barony of LOWER ORIOR, but chiefly in that of
UPPER ORIOR, county of ARMAGH, and province of ULSTER. 4 miles (W.) from
Newry; containing, exclusively of Carnlough and Meigh, 4259 inhabitants.
Including the parishes of Camlough and Meigh (which are described under
their own heads) it comprises, according to the Ordnance survey, 28,174
statute acres, of which 4191 are in Lower, and the remainder in Upper
Orior. Of these, about 21,440 are arable and pasture, 190 water, and
6300 mountain and bog. The mountain called Slieve Gullion separates this
parish from Forkhill, and rises to the height of 1893 feet above the
level of the sea. The system of agriculture has been much improved
recently. Whinstone and grey granite are extensively worked for
building, and porphyry is also found. There is a communication with
Lough Neagh by the Newry canal, and the river Bann. |
