J1685 : Former millrace, Muckamore (1)

near to Antrim, Ireland

Former millrace, Muckamore (1)

The York Street Flax Spinning Company, Belfast also owned mills at Dunadry, Muckamore and Antrim. Muckamore was powered by a millrace/carry which still survives. Most of it is overgrown and a section has been culverted. This part, where it’s about to enter the Sixmilewater, is at the back of Abbeyview and Raceview, lies immediately downstream of the culvert – see J1685 : Former millrace, Muckamore (2).

The Sixmilewater, Co Antrim

The Sixmilewater is longer than the name suggests – approximately 20 miles in total. It rises to the north of Carrickfergus and flows by way of Ballyclare, Dunadry and Antrim town into Lough Neagh.
