No, I meant "new" as in, "it wasn't there last year" :) I'm old enough to remember the border, and "the troubles" too.
I also believe the removal of the border was a large factor in the cessation of hostilities, and the reason it's such a hot topic now.

My uncle used to have a house (he described it as such, to call it a shack would have been generous) in the south of France close to the Spanish border. Before freedom of movement they used to just walk into Spain as and when they pleased.
