Loughbrickland (/lɒxˈbrɪklæn/ or /lɒxˈbrɪklænd/ lokh-BRIK-lan(d); from Irish Loch Bricleann)[1] is a small village in County Down, Northern Ireland, south of Banbridge on the A1 Belfast–Dublin road.

Loughbrickland may have been the site where the Three Collas fought the Battle of Achadh Leithdheirg in 331 AD, defeating the forces of Fergus Foga, king of Ulster.

John O'Mahony the Gaelic scholar states that the battle site was commemorated by "a huge Carn of loose stones near Loughbrickland".

[6] Probably the most prominent developer of the district, Whitechurch established villages, churches, and markets that formed the basis of the local infrastructure.

Tradition has it that William stayed overnight at Bovennet house, and mounted his horse from a stone on the corner of the Poyntzpass Road.
