Title: Carrick Plant Parking
Post by: Heggs on May 22, 2015

I'm planning to camp in Annalong woods over the weekend and have seen a few times that people have parked overnight in Carrick plant. I've never been in this area before and am finding it difficult to find its exact location on the map. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Is it Carrick plant hire and where is its location. Even co-ordinates would do  :)
Thanks!

If you drive up the lane beside the Carrick Little public car park you will see it on your left. Usually there are some diggers outside it.

Like Fred says, half way up the hill from the Head Road to the gate in the Mourne Wall, it's a fairly obvious car park with a couple of picnic tables. However, you have to go to the house to pay, just knock the front door, they're very friendly.
