Clady (Irish: Clóidigh)[1] is a small village in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland.

Clady currently has two schools, a primary (St. Mary's) and a secondary (St Conor's College) (formerly St Mary’s before a merger with St Paul’s in Kilrea) The main river, also the towns namesake, is the Clady River which formally starts near Culnady when the Grillagh River and Knockoneil River both merge at a deep pool known locally as the Joinings Pool.

Then the river flows on for about a mile and silently under the Eden Bridge which was built in 1959.

At one point the river was natural and 2 to 3 times as wide until around the mid 20th century when the river underwent a major dredge operation to control the mass amount of floodwater not only from the hills of Slaughtneil but also William Clark & Sons of Upperlands coming from the sluice gates and flood gates.

The River flows on into some wild country through natural rock and weirs and flows over the weir built for Lagans Mill of Clady, as the river continues its journey it reaches Clady Bridge which is the oldest bridge on the river and also the largest one built circa 1700s.
