Kilkeel is the principle town in the Kingdom of Mourne. It lies between the mountain range, immortalized by Percy French in his song 'The Mountains of Mourne' and the Irish Sea. Before the 13 th century the name for the area was Boirche but became known as Mourne when the Clan Mc Mahon came from County Monaghan and settled in the area bringing the name of their own district, Cre-Mourne, with them.
