From the striking similitude existing between the island of Bathlin and the adjacent coast, it is the general opinion that this island, at one period, formed a part of the County of Antrim. The island is about six miles from the Irish and fourteen from the Scotch coast. The inhabitants number about a thousand, and prin- cipally speak the Irish language. From Ballycastle the tourist proceeds westwards on his way to the Causeway. The road is iminteresting, but he will have to turn off now and the...n, and on foot examine the several headlands along the coast. First is Kenbaan — ^the white head — a singular promontory, which derives its name from the remarkable formation of chalk occurring in the midst of basalt It is crowned by the ruins of an ancient castle. Digitized by VjOOQ IC THE CAUSEWAY. 77 Near the village of Ballintoy may be seen one of the principal attractions of the district — the hanging bridge of Carrick-a-Rede. The headland projects a considerable distance into the sea, and is divided by a tremendous rent or chasm, some convulsion of nature, it is supposed, having separated the rock sixty feet apart, while on either side the walls stand eighty feet above the level of the water.
