The Waterwall

The Waterwall The Waterwall Bar was one of the original posting inn's where weary travellers changed their horses on the long trek from Derry to Ballymena.

The Waterwall Bar founded in the early 19th Century in the pre-victorian era is one of the few licensed premises left to retain the character of the Dickens times. This stage coach Inn still retains the walled coach yard, the stables, the coach house and many trappings that were part and parcel of that bygone age. This wayside inn is steeped in history, indeed part of it is somewhat macabre. The o

riginal owner, Paddy O'Kane was bludgeoned to death with a hatchet over 70 years ago. The marks left by the hatchet are still visible on the low raftered ceiling as his killer smote the fatal blows. It still remains an unsolved murder today. The Waterwall is a popular meeting place for both locals and visitors alike. In the words of the poet Keats, The Waterwall is still 'a wayside inn where one may take one's ease.'
