J4973 : "Low-flying aircraft" sign, Newtownards
taken 14 years ago, near to Newtownards, Co Down, Northern Ireland
The Southern Relief Road (completed in 2009) joins the Belfast road to the Portaferry Road bypassing the town centre. The Castlebawn roundabout will serve the proposed Castlebawn shopping centre.
The aerodrome at Newtownards opened as Ards Airport in 1934. It was used by the RAF for training during WWII and was bombed by the Luftwaffe in 1941. After WWII it reverted to its role as a civil airport. It is now owned by the Ulster Flying Club Link.
