The Lower Bann River flows from Lough Neagh at Toome to the Atlantic Ocean at Portstewart. The river is 38 miles (51 km) long and is a canalised waterway with five navigational locks at Toome, Portna, Movanagher, Carnroe and Castleroe. It acts as most of the county border between Counties Antrim and Londonderry. This series has 13 caches at or nearby 13 bridges (used and disused) that span part or all of the river.   Five locks were constructed to allow navigation down the river by engineer John McMahon between 1846 - 1856. Keep an eye on any geo kids, hounds and yourselves as there is water close by. This series can be completed by boat.
