The B189 is shown on the 1930 OSNI map, running between Portrush and Coleraine parallel to the A29. At that time the road had only recently gained its number but it was quickly declassified again.
The road started on the A2 Crocknamack Road in Portrush and headed southeast out of town along Ballywillan Road, climbing away from the coast. After passing close to Ballywillan Old Church and going over the top of a ridge the road started to wind. It went through Islandmore and then descended to the southwest along Gateside Road. Presently the road reached the B17 to the east of Coleraine, where it ended. This road is now just to the east of the A29 bypass.
