Ouley Hill stands at just 610 feet, in the midst of County Down between Carryduff and Saintfield.
The hill was the site of a battle in the Irish Rebellion of 1798.
An extensive quarry has obliterated much of the north side of Ouley Hill to its very top, and those parts of the hill within the quarry estate are barred to any access. The remaining part of the hill may be accessible by the Killinure Road, which runs across the highest part. There are several side road networks which straddle the peak, including Ouley Road.
