Curran Point
Curran Point is a small headland within the mouth of Larne Lough, County Antrim. The lough is a long sea-lough enclosed by Islandmagee to the east with Larne on the west shore of the lough mouth: Curran Point extends south from the port side of Larne in a claw-shape, within the shelter of the lough. It provides on shelter for the harbour as the waters in its lee are too shallow.
Olderfleet Castle, a Plantation-era tower house, stands on Curran Point, and in its day it commanded the entrance to the lough.
