  • Section 1: Monitoring Information
    Section 1: Monitoring Information 1.1 How where the consultations advertised/promoted? Initially the consultations where promoted by targeting existing groups in the Bessbrook and Camlough area. Introductory phone calls where made to group leaders and school principles accessing their interest and support for the project. Initial meetings with the community group leaders and principles of the local primary schools where organised. 1.2 How did you maximise their accessibility (i.e. venue, time of day, targeting) ? It was important given the semi rural nature of Bressbrook and Camlough that as many sessions as possible slotted into groups existing timetable. Most sessions occurred during the day in host venues already in use by the groups/schools. The groups targeted had the biggest potential of a cross over of religious and ethnic backgrounds. This was intentional. On a cross community level group leaders where consulted to establish a common neutral space in the area which could host an arts event. 1.3 Consultation Duration Duration (weeks) Total Hours Delivered Date and Times of Workshops: 26/02/14 10.30-11.00 Bessbrook Mother and Toddlers Group 30min 26/02/14 2.30-3.00 Bessbrook Luncheon Club 30 min 28/02/14 9.30-10.00 Lislea Mother and Toddler Group 30min 05/03/14 10.30-11.30 Bessbrook Mother and Toddler Group 1hr 05/03/14 2.30- 3.30 Bessbrook Luncheon Club 1.5 hrs 07/03/14 9.30- 11.00 Lislea Mother and Toddler Group 1.5hrs 12/03/14 10.30-11.30 Bessbrook Mother and Toddler Group 1hr 26/03/14 2.00- 4.00 Bessbrook Luncheon Club 2hrs 28/03/14

  • 1951 Census Armagh County Report
    GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN IRELAND 1951 County of Armagh Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST : HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PRICE 7s M NET GOVERNMENT OF NORTHERN IRELAND CENSUS OF POPULATION OF NORTHERN ffiELAND 1951 County of Armagh Printed & presented pursuant to 14 & 15 Geo. 6, Ch. 6 BELFAST ; HER MAJESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE 1954 PREFACE Three censuses of population have been taken since the Governinent of Northern Ireland was established. The first enumeration took place in 1926 and incorporated questions relating to occupation and industry, orphanhood and infirmities. The second enumeration made in 1937 was of m^ore limited scope and was intended to bridge the gap between the census of 1926 and the census which it was proposed to take in 1941, but which had to be abandoned owing to the outbreak of war. The census taken as at mid­ night of 8th-9th April, 1951, forms the basis of this report and like that in 1926 questions were asked as to the occupations and industries of the population. The length of time required to process the data collected at an enumeration before it can be presented in the ultimate reports is necessarily considerable. In order to meet immediate requirements, however, two Preliminary Reports on the 1951 census were published. The first of these gave the population figures by administrative areas and towns and villages, and by Counties and County Boroughs according to religious profession. The Second Report, which was restricted to Counties and County Boroughs, gave the population by age groups.

    The world has become smaller: transport through the ages in Newry and Mourne Motorised charabancs were a popular form of transport for outings in the Front cover: Sketch of Barkston Lodge in the townland of Carnmeen, 1910s and 1920s. This image shows such an outing in south Down c.1920. produced by Foster and Company of Dublin. Horses were the main mode Courtesy of Cathy Brooks of transport before the introduction of motorised vehicles in the early 20th century. Newry and Mourne Museum Collection Introduction This exhibition and accompanying booklet looks at aspects of transport in the Newry and Mourne area over the centuries. It begins by examining the importance of water transport in the Mesolithic period and how transport by land became more important in later prehistoric times. The influence of the establishment of churches and monasteries in the Early Christian period, and of political developments in the Middle Ages on the Bessbrook tram at Millvale crossroads in April 1940. formation of the road network is highlighted. The Photograph by W.A. Camwell from The Bessbrook and Newry Tramway (The Oakwood Press, 1979). exhibition also reveals how routeways established during these periods continue in use today. Travel by sea is seen as underpinning the growth of Newry as a wealthy mercantile centre in the 18th and 19th centuries. The impact of the arrival of the railways in the area in the mid 19th century, especially with regard to the emergence of Warrenpoint and Rostrevor as holiday destinations is stressed. The exhibition also explores how the introduction of motorised vehicles in the 20th century revolutionised transport for everyone.
