Quoile Yacht Club was founded in Downpatrick at the Quoile Quay, on the then tidal Quoile River, in 1958.
In 1962, a barrier was built at Castle Island, to prevent the flooding of Downpatrick.
It was agreed that the club was to relocate on the seaward side of the barrier and club moved to its current location, with sheltered deepwater moorings, space for caravans, clubhouse and parking. |
