In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Upper Bann like this:
Bann, Upper, river, SW. co. Down, flowing from the Mourne mountains 25 m. NW. past Banbridge to Lough Neagh at Banfoot Ferry, N. co. Armagh. It is joined by the Newry Canal at Portadown. The salmon fisheries on the Lower and Upper Bann are very productive.
Upper Bann is now part of ARMAGH CITY BANBRIDGE AND CRAIGAVON District. Click here for graphs and data of how ARMAGH CITY BANBRIDGE AND CRAIGAVON has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Upper Bann itself, go to Statistics.
