History and development

Drumaness developed as a mill village in 1850, with the opening of a spinning mill on the banks of the River Cumber. The mill, which was the village's main employer, closed in 1968.[citation needed] Today it is largely a commuter settlement which contains a limited range of services and shops.[citation needed] Christ The King Catholic Primary School and the Church of Christ the King are situated on the Drumsnade Road on the opposite side of the Newcastle Road, approximately a quarter or a mile or 0.5 kilometres south west of the village.
