Four weirs are enumerated in the N-S River Blackwater between Ballynatray and Templemichael in 1602, and two are specifically associated with the manor of Ballynatray in 1604 (Went 1946, 181). The location is uncertain but a fish weir is recorded on a Bateman map of 1717 (NLI: ms. 6148, 1) and also on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map at he point where the W-E Glendine River joins the Blackwater.
