Larne River
river, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom
Larne River, river, in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, rising in the low watershed (400 ft [122 m]) between its own valley and that of the Six-Mile-Water and flowing northeastward to the important Irish Sea port of Larne, where it swings east and enters Larne Lough (inlet of the sea) after a course of about 9 mi (14.5 km). The valleys of the Larne and Six-Mile-Water cut across the Antrim plateau to form a through-route to the Irish Sea coast from the lowlands east of Lough (lake) Neagh.
