Discovered lane (54.1924, -6.3316)

136.5 m · net rise 26.3 m · overall 19.2% · confidence: high · Newry · County Down

Shape: sustained — 34% of the climbing sits in a quarter of the distance; longest continuous stretch at 10%+ is 123 m.

Found purely from mapping and LiDAR data, and not yet matched against books, race records or lists — it may be well known to locals under a name we've never heard. It was cross-checked against the OS road network, surface models and map tags, but a discovery can still be an artifact of the terrain model or the map. Treat it as a well-evidenced hypothesis until someone has ridden it. If you know this road, tell us what you found — photographs, corrections and local knowledge all welcome; the map links below let you scout it first.
