Description

Seks Mile Vand er en flod i det sydlige County Antrim, Nordirland. Det er en indirekte tilløbsbane til floden Bann via Lough Neagh.

Selvom den er kort, er den tættere på 26 miles lang end seks; beretningerne varierer i forhold til oprindelsen af navnet. Den mest accepterede historie er, at normanniske soldater, der marcherede fra Carrickfergus Slot, beregnede, at de havde marcheret seks miles, da de krydsede floden ved Ballyclare. Da normannerne byggede slots ved Carrickfergus, placerede de en række forposter langs floden, som dengang blev kaldt Ollar. Med tiden nåede soldaterne, der rejste fra Carrickfergus til Antrim, floden på dette sted, når de havde rejst seks miles, og begyndte derfor at kalde Ollar for Seks Mile Vand.
