Naul Hills
Introduction The '''Naul Hills''', or '''Man-of-War Hills'''  are low-lying hills in north County Dublin, Ireland, close to the village of Naul, formerly called ''The Naul'', (). They lie beside the County Meath border, 30 kilometres north of  Dublin City (17 km north of the airport), 16 km north-northwest of Swords, and 8 km southwest of Balbriggan. Mounds near Knockbrack hillTypical hill elevations run between 140 and 150 metres, with the highest point in the area being the 176m Knockbrack (). Limestone quarrying has been carried out in the hills, and the ''London Encyclopaedia'' (1829) remarked, "there are coals at Naul...but the coal vein is not worked. "As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the temporary reduction in emissions as well as a period of sustained fine weather meant that Knockbrack was visible across the Irish Sea from Anglezarke, Lancashire for a period in May 2020.Summit of Knockbrack (An Cnoc Breac) in Jan 2022
