Creggan History Society

The Society

The Creggan Local History Society was formed in 1985 with the objective of collecting and distributing information on all aspects of the history of the Creggan Parish in particular and of South Armagh in general by-

  1. The publication of an historical journal.
  2. Sponsoring at least one annual historical lecture.
  3. Providing an archive of historical material for public consultation
  4. Co-operating with other Societies engaged in like work

To date (2001) we have published nine journals and a number of other publications. We have an extensive archive of documentary and photographic material which is available for research by schools and others interested in the history of the area.

[Other information about other work undertaken by the Society, events hosted, visits undertaken, visitors to the Society, ambitions, planned projects (other than the published programme for the year) etc could be in a separate page or pages]
