Prior
to the development of the Coast Road, access to and from
Cushendall was often easier by sea than inland over the Antrim
Plateau. Understandably the village has close associations with
Scotland. Although the village has a long history of settlement,
its real development began in 1813 when the village was
purchased by Francis Turnly. One of Cushendalls most prominent
landmarks, the Curfew Tower, is associated with this period.
Cushendall Conservation Area encloses the heart of the village.
The boundary includes the historic core of the village on the
west bank of the river, together with the extensive wooded
grounds of The Cottage and the older part of the settlement on
the east bank of the river.
