FINTONA
The
town of Fintona is situated in the southern portion of the County of Tyrone,
and is in advance of most other places of similar population for its
commercial activity and the importance and success of its markets; its pork
and fowl, butter and egg markets being amongst the first in the County.
Population about 1,400. It stands on the property of the late John S.
Eccles, Esq., D.L., Ecclesville. Its ancient castle, of probably
Elizabethian times, is now in utter ruin, but its situation is admirable and
commands a view of the entire town. Fintona has been almost entirely rebuilt
within the past thirty years, and its banks and shops would compare
favourably with similar establishments in much larger towns. The Northern
and Hibernian Banks have fine offices. Eccles Arms Hotel, owned by Mr.
Thomas McCarron, and the Temperance Hotel, owned by Mr. A. Wilson, are good
establishments. A monthly fair is held on the 22nd of every month; market
day every Friday. It has a station on the G.N.R., and is situated in a
fertile district. The town is well lighted by oil lamps.

FIVEMILETOWN
A Market town with about 600 inhabitants, in the southern extremity of
County Tyrone, near the Fermanagh boundary, on a ridge which forms the
Watershed between the Erne and the Northern Blackwater, which flow into
Lough Neagh. Before the Ulster Plantation it is said to have been called
Ballynalurgan, and for some time afterwards to have borne the name of
Blessingbourne, that of the Plantation Manor in which it is situated, early
in the last century; however, it acquired its present name, supposed to be
derived from the fact that it is five miles from Clogher, Tempo, and
Brookborough, respectively, places which Fivemiletown has long overtaken and
surpassed in prosperity and importance. Fivemiletown is a station on the
Clogher Valley Tramway (Light Railway) twenty-eight miles (statute) from
Tynan junction and ten from Maguiresbridge, both on the Great Northern
Railway. There is a weekly pork, butter, corn, and egg market, and a monthly
cattle fair. The business of the town has much increased since the opening
of the Clogher Valley line in 1885, and it is expected to increase in size
and prosperity. It lies in the midst of a pleasing, undulating, well
timbered, well-farmed portion of the Clogher Valley, bounded on the north
and south by high hills. By road it is thirteen miles from Omagh, twenty
miles from Dungannon, and eleven miles from Enniskillen.

GARVAGH
This
pretty little town is situated almost on the extreme verge of the County
Derry, being only three miles from the River Bann, which divides it from
County Antrim. It is nine miles from Coleraine and twenty-three from Derry
City. It is considered by judges to be one of the prettiest little towns in
Ulster, or perhaps in Ireland. This is greatly owing to the great breadth of
its streets, which is second to none in the North in that respect. It is
also of some historic interest, especially for a battle fought between
Loyalists, commanded by Colonel Canning and Sir Phelm Roe O'Neill in 1641,
in which Colonel Canning's forces were defeated, and himself killed. There
have been also some other skirmishes of more modern date, the most notable
of which was one generally called the Battle of Garvagh, in the year 1813,
and from which all great events have been dated since. The town is well
sheltered from westerly winds by Lady Garvagh's Demesne, and from the north
by Hermitage, the residence of the popular agent of the estate, W. H. Ashe,
Esq., J.P. About five minutes' walk further on is the seat of O. P.
McCausland, Esq., J.P., one of the handsomest places in the neighbourhood.
The houses in Garvagh are substantial and well built. The country
undulating, the hills rising at a distance of about two miles from the town,
to what is called "the mountains," from which there is a splendid view on
clear days of the Highlands of Scotland, The Cave Hill of Belfast, Mourne
Mountains, and Lough Neagh being clearly visible with the naked eye. The air
is pure and bracing. It is a good agricultural and cattle raising district;
the soil is of a dry, light nature, easily laboured, and not easily injured
by drought or wet. The crops best suited to it are oats, flax, and potatoes,
the last being of an exceptionally good quality. The markets are held three
days in the week - Tuesday and Thursday for grain; Friday for pork, butter,
and eggs. There is also a monthly fair, third Friday each month for cattle,
sheep, and horses. There are three good Hotels, in which visitors can be
accommodated at moderate charges. A Temperance Hotel, where the Petty
Sessions are held, and all public meetings. The Derry Central Railway passes
the town, the station being about ten minutes' walk from it. Good shooting
and fishing can also be had in the neighbourhood.

HILLSBOROUGH
A market town (formerly a Parliamentary
borough), in County Down, ten miles from Belfast, on the road from Dublin to
Belfast. Petty Sessions held on first Saturday of every month, in the Court House.
The Parish Church is a very elegant building, consisting of a nave and cross
aisles. The tower, which is upwards of 100 feet high, and the steeple, 100
more, form altogether a beautiful and conspicuous object, and can be seen at
a great
distance. There are also two smaller towers at the sides. A monument by Nollekens, to the memory of Archdeacon Leslie, erected by the third Marquis
of Downshire, is worthy of notice; as also a monument, erected by the
fourth Marquis of Downshire to the memory of William E. Reilly, Esq., a
former agent; and there is a very chaste and elegant group of statuary,
erected by the Marchioness of Downshire to the memory of her late husband,
the fifth Marquis. There are also two other handsome churches in the parish,
built by the third Marquis, and one endowed by him; and there is one
Presbyterian Church, and a Roman Catholic Chapel. The charitable
Institutions are - a Dispensary, schools for both sexes. The Boy's School
has been lately brought under the National Board, conducted on the modern
system of education, and a Sunday School, patronised by the Downshire
family. The Downshire demesne is contiguous to the town - the mansion,
garden and lawn being on the west side of it. On a hill at the Dromore side
of the town is a splendid monument to the memory of the third Marquis of
Downshire, erected by public subscription, and in the centre of the town,
opposite the church entrance, is a bronze statue of the fourth Marquis, put
up by friends and tenants. Hillsborough Fort,
often visited by tourists, was built in the reign of Charles I., and is constituted a
Royal Fort, of which the Marquis of Downshire is hereditary Constable. King
William the Third stopped here when passing on to Drogheda, and it was here
he signed the Regium Donum grant to Presbyterian ministers. Hillsborough
gives the titles of Earl and Viscount to the Marquis of Downshire. The
Northern Banking Company, Limited, have a branch here. There is close to the town a large linen factory, belonging to the
Hillsborough Linen Company Limited. The East Downshire Steamship Company,
Limited (of which the Right Hon. Lord A. Hill, M.P., is chairman of
directors), having its head office at Dundrum, Co. Down, opened a depot for
the sale of coals at Newport, on the banks of the Lagan Canal some four
years ago. There is a public newsroom and a lending library, open to the
people of the town and vicinity. The markets are held on Wednesday; fairs, third Wednesday in each
month. Population in 1891, 950

HOLYWOOD
Four and a quarter
(Irish) miles distant from the
Exchange (Commercial Buildings), Belfast, is beautifully situated on the eastern
or County Down shore of Belfast Lough,
and is backed by an extensive range of hills, which rise with a gentle slope
from the water's edge to a height of between 600 and 700 feet. These hills
materially check and moderate the cold and humid south-east and southerly
winds, which prevail so largely at certain seasons, before they reach the
town; while the north and north-west winds by having to cross over the large
expanse of salt water in the bay are denuded of the keenness peculiar to
land winds, and these important influences, combined with the natural
attractiveness of the locality at all seasons, make Holywood highly
appreciated as an all-the-year-round residence, especially for those of a
delicate or susceptible frame. The public road from Holywood to Belfast leads through Ballymacarrett and Strandtown, passing
over Bunker's Hill, from which the renowned "Bunker Hill" of America
is named. There is also an old road leading through Belmont and
Knocknagoney, and by either of these routes a most charming drive is
afforded. Direct railway accommodation to this pleasant seaside town is
afforded by the Belfast and County Down Railway, trains running
almost every hour; morning and evening the trains run every half hour to
suit business men from half past six o'clock in the morning until eleven at
night, the fares are moderate, and special inducements are offered to
subscribers. It is thus one of the most accessible suburbs in Belfast. Holywood is
remarkable as having been a place of note so far back as the seventh
century, at which period a church is believed to have been founded in it by
Saint Laisren, and it is recorded that King John, when journeying from
Carrickfergus to Downpatrick, on the 29th of July, 1210, halted at Holywood
- "Apud Sanctum Boscum" - the name Sanctus Boscus or Holy Wood having
been given to it as early as the period of the English Invasion; the road
traversed by King John was that leading past the waterworks. It is also
stated that in the year 1217 Jordanus de Saukevill was confirmed in the
possession of the lands "de Sancto Bosco" by Henry III. About the year 1200 a monastery of the
Third Order of St. Francis, or Franciscans, was founded. This monastery was
tenanted by about four
hundred monks, and stood somewhere near the ruins of the present Old Church, and
occupied the site of the church believed to have been founded by St. Laisren
in the seventh century. A short distance from the Old Church, in the grounds
of Millmoat, is a large ancient rath or funereal ground, supposed to be the
tomb of some mighty chief who flourished long prior even to St. Laisren's
time. This monastery was attached to the great monastic establishment at
Bangor founded by St. Comgall, and it, together with those at Bangor,
Newtownards, and Moville, were burned by Sir Thomas Brian MacFelim O'Neill,
Lord of Clannaboy, in 1572, in order that Sir Thos. Smith, Secretary to
Queen Elizabeth, might not have the opportunity of placing garrisons in
them. In the graveyard which surrounds the Old Church there are gravestones dating from
1630, and quite recently an elaborately carved stone of about six feet in
height, which has been proved of great antiquity, was discovered embedded at a
considerable depth on the north-east side of the old graveyard, and is now
preserved in the belfry. Peculiar interest in connection with the
Presbyterian Church attaches to Holywood, inasmuch as we are informed Robert
Cunningham "was the first of the Presbyterian Divines to settle, not only in
Holywood, but in the County Down, and the second one established in Ulster."
He was settled in Holywood in 1615, where he ministered successfully for
about twenty years.
The places of worship of all
denominations are handsome and commodious edifices. Sullivan's National Schools,
consisting of boys', girls', and infant schools, occupy a very superior and
ornamental structure in the principal street; and adjoining it (built at a cost of £2,000)
stands one of
the best and cheapest endowed Intermediate Schools to be found in Ireland. According to
the scheme of Dr. Sullivan's trustees, as amended by the Master of the
Rolls, instruction is given in this important and valuable institution in
ancient classics, modern languages, science, English composition, &c., at
rates that enable the sons of parents of small incomes to enjoy their
benefits. Dr. Sullivan's munificent bequests for these schools amounted to
about £14,000, of which £4,000 are to be applied to the ordinary schools.
The Parochial National Schools (male and female) situated adjacent to the
Parish Church, and built by the congregation, are handsome and commodious
structures, with a large daily attendance. There are also several first-class ladies' and boys'
boarding and day schools. The shops in the town are numerous - grocers. bakers, hardware, butchers, millinery
establishments, all of which do
a flourishing business; besides which the principal traders in Belfast send
their vans regularly to take orders and supply their customers. Fish caught in the lough
by local fishermen are sold every morning. The principal hotel, "The Belfast
Hotel," in High Street, is an extensive building, with large stabling
and carriage accommodation. The proprietor, Mr. John P. Craig,
conducts it in the best style, with a reasonable tariff. The
"Kinnegar Hotel," Mr. Samuel J. Sayles, proprietor, also affords excellent
accommodation at moderate rates. A number of cars are always at the railway
station on the arrival of trains, and
private cabs and landaus are to be had on hire; boats can also be hired by the
hour or day during the summer. The Government have acquired the Kinnegar,
and use it as an out military station for drill purposes and ball practice.
Two ranges have been constructed, one fitted with running gear; and
companies from the battalions stationed in Belfast, as well as militia
regiment are placed under canvas on the Kinnegar during the summer season.
The Government have also acquired the "Palace" grounds, and here also a
militia regiment and companies from the battalions in Belfast are kept under
canvas during the season. The Ulster Rifle Association, established nearly a
quarter of a century, have also their range on the Kinnegar, and here some
of the most distinguished marksmen of the United Kingdom have been trained.
It is admirably adapted for golfing,
and it is not an unusual sight to see a number of gentlemen engaged
in this exhilarating pastime on a Saturday afternoon. The Holywood Cricket and Lawn
Tennis Club has a large membership, and fine grounds at Spafield, within a
few minutes' walk of the railway station. Holywood is under the
Towns' Improvement (Ireland) Act, 1854, and it is exceedingly well sewered, the sanitary arrangements in every direction having
been actively looked after. The town is well lighted with gas of a superior
quality, laid to Marino and as far as Craigavad. The Town Hall,
the property of the rate payers, situate in Sullivan Place, is a very fine
and commodious building,
with every accommodation suitable for all classes of meetings, and in
another portion of the building the Petty Sessions Court is held bi-monthly.
The large hall is most comfortable and spacious, capable of seating about
five hundred persons, with a raised platform, and is used for
concerts and lectures. In connection with the building
is a News Room and public library; also, a most flourishing Chess Club and a
Secular Improvement Society. There is a Volunteer Fire Brigade in Holywood, and the apparatus is kept beside the Town
Hall. The Orange Hall, a plain but substantial building, containing lodge
rooms, and assembly hall, is also in Sullivan Place, in close proximity to
the railway station. The Masonic Hall, in Church View, is an unpretentious
looking building on the outside, but the interior, which includes lodge
room, ante room, and supper room, is very neatly and comfortably fitted up.
The Holywood Young Men's Christian Association (1882), with a membership of
close upon two hundred, hold weekly meetings during the winter in the
Parochial Hall, Church Road. A branch of the Y.M.C.A. at the corner of Marine
Parade and Shore Street has also been established, and has a large membership. Meetings and classes
are held on several evenings during each week. Hot and cold, salt and fresh
water baths have been fitted up for the use of subscribers. There is also a
news room, and a gymnasium in connection with it. The
Public Fountain in Church Street is
the gift of Baron Trevor, Brynkinalt, North Wales, Lord of the Manor. It is
supplied by a spring which rises in the adjoining field a little below the
church and the water is justly celebrated for its purity and excellence for
tea making purposes. The May Pole, probably the last of the kind in Ireland,
stands at the junction of High Street, Shore Street, and Church Street, and is the gift of Captain Harrison, J.P. It is an
immense Norwegian spar, standing about sixty four feet above ground, and
twenty under it. The ceremony of dressing it with bunting and flowers on May
eve is still continued. Holywood has been always
recommended to invalids on account of its superior climate, which is, winter
and summer, two degrees warmer than Belfast. The late eminent Dr. Forsythe
was accustomed to make his patients take up their residence there, as he did
himself in old age, after amassing a large fortune. Distinguished Dublin
physicians speak in the highest terms of the climate. The walks along the
shore and on the hills are very numerous and most attractive. From the summit of
the hills there are, at different standpoints, commanding views of County
Down, with its farms, lakes, rivers, and mountains stretching away to Slieve
Donard; then away to the right, from above Stormount Castle, appears the
whole valley of the Lagan, with the spires of Lisburn, Hillsborough and
Ballinderry, in the distance. From the hills above Craigavad there is
afforded a wide sweep of the Scottish mountains, with Ailsa Craig rising
up like a vast sugar loaf in the middle of the deep. From the hill above
Craigantlet there is a grand view of Strangford Lough, and, still looking to
the right, the grand, majestic old Cave Hill is to be seen; and in one
uninterrupted view the eye can reach the dark and terrible looking Black
Head. A little nearer
Holywood is Pottinger's Dog Kennel, where in olden times the father of the
celebrated brothers Pottinger, of Chinese fame, kept his hounds while he
lived at Craigavad House. There are curious old caves in Cultra Glen, and
well worth exploring; and
about a mile above the Parish Church is what is called Schomberg's Hill, where
it is supposed William's
Army lay proceeding from Groomsport to the Boyne. The first house in High Holywood -
"Glenside" - was built by the late Rev. Henry Henderson, in 1849,
for many years the revered pastor of the Bangor Road Presbyterian
Congregation in Holywood, and now the whole of that greatly admired district is covered with detached
mansions, terraces, and shrubberies. The inhabitants get a plentiful supply
of pure water from the waterworks, constructed in the glen above the town,
at a cost of about £10,000 to the ratepayers. Mr. L. L. Macassey, C.E., was
the engineer for the works as now constructed. They comprise a storage
reservoir of about three acres in extent (capable of holding nine million
gallons), two filter basins, and a clear water basin. The nomination of
candidates for Parliamentary honours for the North Division of Down, and the
declaration of the poll, takes place in Holywood; the present recipient of
the honour is Colonel Waring, M.P., D.L. The proprietor of Holywood is Captain John
Harrison, J.P. The proprietor of Holywood is Captain John Harrison, J.P. The Population in 1841 was 1,500; in 1861, 2,422; in 1871,
3,462; in 1881, 3,293; and it is now (1893) estimated at about 4,000, the
town, after several years of depression, having made great progress within
the past few years. The poor-law valuation of the township is about £11,000.

high square tower of the old church, on which is erected a good town clock.
In the vicinity of the town is Castle Irvine, a beautiful building, the seat
of William D'Arcy Irvine, Esq., J.P. Petty Sessions are held every alternate
Friday, and there is a Constabulary Barracks, with six constables and a
sergeant. The Parish Church is a handsome structure in the Gothic style,
with a square tower. It was erected in 1831 at a cost of £2,300. The
Presbyterian Church and Manse, near the railway station, are very neat
buildings. The Methodist Church, at the east end of the town, is a very
complete building, and most comfortably seated and finished. A short

KILKEEL
The
flourishing town of Kilkeel is situated near the Southern extremity of the
County of Down, in the Barony of Mourne,
and is half a mile from the
open coast. The town - which is composed of five streets: Newry Street, Greencastle Street,
Quay Street, Bridge Street,
and Newcastle Street - contains 1,452 inhabitants. Generally, the houses are
well built; and in Greencastle Street several handsome residences have
lately been erected. The sanitary state of the town is most satisfactory. The
religious edifices are - The Church of Ireland, two Presbyterian Churches, a Moravian Church,
and a Roman Catholic Chapel. In the town there is a branch of the Belfast
Bank, the Workhouse of the Kilkeel Union, a Post Office, a Police Barrack, a
Courthouse, and two excellent Hotels. Petty Sessions are held on the last
Tuesday in each month, the local magistrates being - Earl of Kilmorey, Mourne
Park; Messrs. J. Q. Henry, The Abbey; J. Walmsley, Ballykeel House; John Orr, Kilkeel;
and Lindsay Moore, Moore Lodge. The shopkeepers in the town are courteous and
energetic, and furnish all requisites of the best quality for family use. A
great number of vessels discharge coal at the pier, which has
been of great advantage to the people of the district. Kilkeel boasts of a
large number of good fishing luggers, and the hardy fishermen pursue their
remunerative calling with praiseworthy perseverance. About twelve minutes'
walk from Kilkeel there is a splendid strand. In the future this beautiful
bay is likely to attract large numbers of health seekers. Indeed, it would
now be a favourable resort if suitable cottages were erected along the
shore. The scenery of the district is remarkably grand, and tourists' trips
through it by cars, organised by Mr. Matier, are becoming increasingly
popular.

KILLYBEGS
This is a delightfully situated seaport town, surrounded by rugged and
picturesque scenery, on the properties of H. G. Murray Stewart, Esq., and R.
Tyler Bustard, Esq., about fourteen miles from Donegal and fifty from
Londonderry, of the whole of which first-named property, Arthur Brooke,
Esq., J.P., Whitehouse, Killybegs, is agent. It has one of the finest
harbours in Ireland, the largest ships of war being able to anchor with
safety close to the town; also its land-locked position renders it the chief
harbour of refuge on the north-west coast, and it is extensively used as
such. Killybegs is rapidly improving. A railway from Donegal is constructed
- three services each way daily, Sunday excepted - which will undoubtedly
make the town a favourite watering-place. As for bathing and boating it
cannot be surpassed, the harbour being safe for sailing at nearly all
seasons. Sportsmen will find plenty of amusement in the shooting and
fishing, widgeon and wild duck being plentiful in the winter season. The
town is exceptionally well built, and contains some handsome edifices, the
most prominent of which are the Church of Ireland, Roman Catholic Chapel,
Murray Stewart Schools, and Niall Mor National School. Within a mile
from Killybegs are situated the beautiful house and demesne of Fintra, with
3,000 acres of shooting on adjacent mountains, owned by T. J. Hamilton
Gorringe, Esq., of the Hylands, Epsom. Five and a half miles distant are the
caves of Muckross, and ten miles distant the celebrated cliffs of Slieve
League, which are said to be the finest in Europe, several of which have a
sheer face down to the sea, and are upwards of 1,900 feet in height. A
lighthouse stands at the entrance to Killybegs Harbour, and another at St.
John's Point, four miles distant, protects the outer coasts. This is a
station for H.M. cruises. Two mails are received daily from Donegal, and two
are despatched. A fair is held on the 3rd of each month; a weekly market
every Friday; a court of Petty Sessions second Monday in each month. A
flourishing branch of the Ulster Bank Limited, has been established here
more than twenty years. There are three capital hotels, any one of which
visitors will find most comfortable. Population about 800

KILLYLEAGH
A seaport
and formerly a market town and
Parliamentary borough, in the County Down, about sixteen miles S.E. from
Belfast, situated at the head of a creek on the West shore of Strangford
Lough, on the road from Downpatrick to Belfast. There are two extensive
linen yarn spinning mills, containing 40,000 spindles and employing 1,500
hands. The Hamiltons, created Lords Clandeboye, and subsequently Earls of
Clanbrassil, formerly resided in an ancient castle at one extremity of the
town. It is now the residence of the Hamilton family, who, with Lord
Dufferin and Ava, own the town and estate contiguous. The magistrates assemble in
Petty Sessions monthly. The church is a handsome cruciform structure, with a
tower, surmounted by a spire of good proportions. It was originally erected
in 1640, but in 1812 was rebuilt, and has recently been much extended. There
are two Presbyterian Churches, a Methodist Chapel, a Roman Catholic Chapel,
and two National Schools. Sir Hans Sloan, the celebrated naturalist and
physician, was born here on the 16th April, 1660, and the house in which he
was born, in Back Street, was some years ago taken down, and another erected
in its stead. The market was formerly held every Friday. The Downpatrick
Branch of the Ulster Bank has an agency here on every Friday. Fairs, 10th April and
11th October. Shrigley Mills and the town contained,
in 1869, 2,730 inhabitants. Shrigley Mills,
the site of one of the flax spinning mills adjoining Killyleagh, has a
population of 1,021; former proprietor, John Martin, Esq., J.P., now owned
by a Limited Liability Company, under the title of John Martin Limited.
There is attached to the mill an infant school, and mixed
school, under the National Board. Patron, Lachlan MacLaine, Esq. The income
from house property alone at Shrigley Mill is upwards of a thousand pounds
annually. This town was erected by the late J. Martin, Esq., and the
houses are all occupied by the workers of John Martin Limited. The mill,
schools, and dwellings would well repay the inspection of visitors; they
are, indeed, an ornament and credit to any neighbourhood. Population 1881,
1835 ? should be 1891 but...

KILREA
Is a
thriving town in the County of Londonderry, with a population of about 1,000
inhabitants, situated on the river Bann, about forty miles from Belfast, on
the central road through the County of Londonderry, and on the property of
the Worshipful Mercers' Company, of London. Three markets are held
each week - on Tuesday for grass-seed, Wednesday for sale of general
produce, and on Thursday for oats and oatmeal. The monthly fair is held on
the second Wednesday of each month, and to meet the requirements of the
district a second cattle market has been established on the fourth Wednesday
of each month, which has proved very successful. There is ample market
accommodation and storage, which is the gift of the owners of the soil. A
Court of Petty Sessions is held on the first Monday of each month. The Derry
Central Railway Station adjoins the town. The Mercers' Hotel is at present
vacant, being rebuilt by the Mercers' Company. It is now almost finished,
and presents a fine appearance, no expense having been spared in its
erection. It contains great accommodation, and it will be sure to attract a
large number of visitors.
