Derryadd

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Derryadd (Doire Fhada in Irish) is a small village in County Armagh, Northern Ireland, on the shores of Lough Neagh. In the 2001 Census it had a population of 201 people. It lies within the Craigavon Borough Council area.

The village is essentially linear in form, fronting both sides of Ardmore Road.

Ardmore Primary School closed in 2006 due to the low number of pupils.

Legendary Punk Rock icon Sid Vicious, and former Celtic footballer Neil Lennon, were regular visitors to the area
