MAGHERA
Is a thriving
little market town in County Derry, thirty six
miles N. by W. from Belfast. It consists of one long and spacious street,
from which several smaller ones branch off, the principal of which are Main
and Hall Streets, and these are improving and extending rapidly. The
houses which are chiefly built of stone, and are modern buildings, have a
respectable appearance. Linen cloth is the staple trade. Petty Sessions are
held on the last Saturday of each month. A Constabulary Station is in the
town. The market days are Tuesday and Friday - the former for flax, pork,
horses and cattle, butter, eggs, fowl and general merchandise; and the
latter for corn and grass seed. The flax market is held on the second and
last Tuesday of each month. Horse and cattle fairs are held on the last
Tuesday of every month

MAGHERAFELT
Is a
flourishing market town in the barony of Loughinsholin and County of Londonderry,
35
miles N.N.W. from Belfast, and 114 miles from Dublin, and 38 miles from
Londonderry. The town, which consists of a square, from which the principal
streets radiate, was formerly the
property of the Salters' Company, but on the company selling out their
estate under the Land Purchase Act, the inhabitants, with a few exceptions,
bought out their houses. The houses are well built and have a pleasant and
improving appearance, and during the last few year some good buildings have been
added to the town. A Convent has been opened in the late Manor House, and
schools have been built at considerable expense in connection therewith. General Quarter Sessions of the
Peace are held quarterly in the new Courthouse, which is a beautiful structure. The Parish
Church (St. Swithin's) is also a fine edifice. The ground for erecting
the church as well as the other churches - First and Second Presbyterian,
and the Roman Catholic Chapel, was given gratuitously by the Salters'
Company. A very good
Free School called "Rainey's Foundation
School," was rebuilt a few years ago by the Salters' Company, and is
now under Governors appointed by the Educational Endowments Commission. An
especial want is felt for the mills and factories in the town or
neighbourhood. Markets
are held every
Thursday, and fairs every second and last Thursday of each month.

MAGUIRESBRIDGE
The
chief beauty of this place, which comprises about 800 inhabitants, is the
Cooneen River, which rises near Fivemiletown, flows through the town, and
empties itself into the Lough Erne. The width of the river at the bridge is
140 feet; and in the summer and autumn it is suitable for fishing. In the
town there is a Church of Ireland, a Presbyterian Church, a Wesleyan Church,
and a Roman Catholic Chapel; also two National Schools. The Great Northern
Railway Terminus is the neatest and best accommodated on the line from
Enniskillen to Dundalk. There is also the Central Station for the Clogher
Valley Tramway Company, in conjunction with the Great Northern Line.

MONAGHAN
Is an
important market town, and the Assize town for its
county, forty three miles S.W. by W. from Belfast. The town consists of one
principal square, and of several streets diverging from it. The County
Courthouse is a handsome building. Her Majesty's Prison is a most
substantial
building. The County Infirmary occupies an elevated situation. There is a
Fever Hospital about a quarter of a mile from the town. At the north
entrance are the Cavalry Barracks and Union Workhouse. The principal trade is
the exchange of general merchandise for agricultural produce of the
surrounding country. The Belfast, Ulster, Provincial and Hibernian Banks,
have branches here; there is also a Savings Bank. The Parish Church is a
handsome structure in the later English style of architecture, with a square
tower surmounted by a spire. The interior contains some handsome monuments
and marble tablets. There is a Presbyterian church, and several Methodist churches. The Roman Catholic chapel adjoins the town. There are some
good public schools. At the end of North Street is a large Model School;
and near to it is the terminus of the Great Northern Railway. There are two newspapers
published here; the Northern Standard, and the People's
Advocate. A Lunatic Asylum has been erected, capable of holding 576
patients. Petty Sessions Court held on each Tuesday. Quarter Sessions four
times and Assizes twice each year. The market days are Monday, Wednesday,
and Saturday - the first for the usual articles of consumption, the two
latter for corn. Fairs, the first Monday of every month. Population of the
town in 1891, 2,938.

MONEYMORE
Is in the County Derry, 32 Irish miles W.N.W. from
Belfast. The town and a large tract of the adjacent country are the property
of the Drapers' Company, London, who have greatly improved it and
surrounding district. Petty Sessions are held on the first Tuesday in each
month. The whole estate belonging to the Company comprises 56 townlands. The Church of
Ireland, Desertlyn, in the town, is a very elegant structure, in the Norman
style of architecture, erected in 1832, at an expense of £6,000, wholly
defrayed by the Drapers' Company. The Drapers' Company, also built at their
expense the Rev. Dr. Barnett's Presbyterian Church, at a cost of £4,000, and
subscribed liberally to the building of the Rev. W. Sharp's Presbyterian
Church. Since the estate came into their possession, they have expended
£50,000 in the improvement of the town of Moneymore alone, exclusive of
about £100,000 upon other portions of their property. The weekly grain
market is held on Friday, and the fair is held on the 21st of every month.

MOY
AND CHARLEMONT
Moy is a small market town in County Tyrone, 49 miles S.W.
from Belfast, situated on the River Blackwater, on the road from Armagh to
Dungannon. It was designed in the year 1764, by the Hon. Earl of Charlemont,
the proprietor, after the plan of Marengo in Italy. Two quays on the river
were erected by the Charlemont family, with extensive stores; and the
Blackwater being navigable from Lough Neagh for lighters of sixty tons
burthen, an immediate communication is formed between Belfast and Newry, by
the Lagan and Newry Canals, and with Lough Erne by the Ulster Canal. There
is a Court House and News Room. Petty Sessions are held every second
Wednesday. In the immediate neighbourhood are several extensive linen
manufactories. The Church of Ireland is in the early English style, with a handsome
square tower. There are places of worship for Presbyterians, Independents,
Methodists and Roman Catholics. On an adjacent hill is Roxborough
House, the beautiful residence of Lord Charlemont, originally commenced in
1774 by his uncle, the Hon. Francis Caulfield. On the first Friday of every
month is held one of the best attended horse fairs in the North of Ireland.
Charlemont, a market town in County Armagh, divided from Moy by the
Blackwater River, over which is a neat stone bridge of five arches, built
about 1706, and rebuilt in 1859 by the two counties - Tyrone and Armagh. It
is a perfect model in style and architecture, and adds considerably to the
towns it unites together, as well as the magnificent entrance of the Earl of
Charlemont, which it immediately adjoins. The Castle was built in 1602. The
town participates with Moy in the linen manufacture. The Church of Ireland was
erected in 1833 on ground given by Lord Charlemont. It is a handsome
structure, resembling in front one of the grand altars of York Minster. The
celebrated and pious John Wesley frequently preached in Charlemont, and
occasionally in the fort.
Post Office, Charlemont Square, Moy - John Morrison,
postmaster. Letters from Dublin, the South of Ireland, England and Scotland,
arrive every morning at 1-30 and mid day at 11-45 and are despatched at 2-20

NEWCASTLE
A
charming watering-place and popular holiday resort, skirting the
shore of Dundrum Bay, and having in the background Slieve Donard, the
loftiest peak of the Mourne Mountains. Its situation is one of unrivalled
beauty, justly entitling Newcastle to be called - as it often is - the
Scarborough of Ireland. Of late years its attractiveness has been greatly
enhanced by the erection of numerous handsome residences replete with every
modern convenience - the laying out of an excellent lawn tennis court, and
the opening in the sandbanks of a golf course under the auspices of the
County Down Golf Club. Incidentally it may be mentioned that these links
have been pronounced among the best in the United Kingdom. A club house for
use of members and visitors has also been recently erected. Newcastle is
about 26 miles distant from Belfast, with which city it is connected by the
County Down Railway. The company have erected a spacious pavilion, which is
thrown open to excursionists should the weather prove unfavourable.
Adjoining the pavilion are the well-known Railway Refreshment and Dining
Rooms, under the able management of the proprietor, Mr. Joseph Lawrence. The
village boasts of two hotels second to none in Ireland - the Annesley Arms
(Miss Trousdale), and the Bellevue
(Mr. S. Abernethy, proprietor). Both are luxuriously furnished throughout,
and the cuisine in both excellent. In close proximity to these hotels are
the baths, where hot, cold, spray, and plunge in sea water may be had at
pleasure. In the matter of public worship, four edifices supply the
spiritual needs of the people, resident or visitor - viz., St. John's, Church
of Ireland; Presbyterian Church, Methodist Church, and
Roman Catholic Chapel. In the centre of the village, facing the sea, is a
spacious promenade, to which visitors have access at all times. Donard Lodge
Demesne, so long the residence of the late Dowager Countess Annesley, is
still kindly thrown open to the public, whilst Tollymore Park (the residence
of the Earl of Roden), and Castlewellan Demesne (the residence of Earl
Annesley) are within easy distance, both being likewise thrown open to the
public. It may be added that, owing to the enterprise of the Railway
Company, by the making a loop line and running an "express" service of
trains, the time in which the journey between Belfast and Newcastle by rail
can be made is one hour. The Annesley Memorial Hall, erected by public
subscription in memory of the late Dowager Countess Annesley, was completed
in 1893, and is now available for public meetings or concerts. Adjoining the
large hall are the suite of rooms occupied by the members of the Newcastle
News Room Club; a merely nominal subscription entitles visitors and others
to the privileges of same. Population in 1893, 900

NEWRY
Is an
extensive market town and Parliamentary borough in Down and Armagh Counties,
fifty miles N. by Dublin, and thirty from Belfast,
comprising within the Parliamentary boundary, 2,543 acres, of which 629 are
in the town, and 1,914 in the rural districts. It is situated near the mouth of the
Clanrye River, which discharges itself into Carlingford Bay, five miles from
the town. There are eight bridges, four of which are stone, and cross the
river separating the Counties of Armagh and Down ; the others are iron and
wooden drawbridges across the Canal. Newry is a very ancient town. In 1175,
Maurice McLoughran, King of Ireland, founded an abbey here, to which great
immunities and endowments were granted, and afterwards confirmed by Hugh de
Lacy, Earl of Ulster, in 1237. In 1689 the Duke of Berwick, to secure his
retreat to Dundalk from the English forces, under the command of the Duke of
Schomberg, set fire to Newry, and left it in a very destitute and ruined condition. The
northern entrance of the town is adorned with a chaste and elegant obelisk
of chiselled granite, erected in honour of the late highly-respected and
generally lamented Trevor Corry, Esq., a favourite magistrate for many
years. The Corry Arms, beautifully executed in Portland stone, appear on the
north and south recesses, and eulogistic inscriptions on black marble are
executed on the west and east sides of the monument. An ornamental miniature
park has lately been arranged round this monument. It is neatly planted with
all kinds of shrubs. Immediately opposite is a neat, capacious edifice,
known as the Orange Hall, erected by the Orangemen of the district, on a
site granted by the Marquis of Downshire, in which the meetings of that body
are held. There is also a Masonic Hall. The public buildings are - two
Protestant Churches (one of which was erected as far back as the reign of
Elizabeth), two Presbyterian Churches,
one
Methodist Church, one Independent Chapel, one Unitarian Church, and two Roman Catholic Chapels,
one Dominican Chapel, three Convents, two Court Houses, two Bridewells,
Custom House, Union Workhouse, one Diocesan College (Violet Hill),
Intermediate School, Ladies' Collegiate School, Scriptural Schools, Freemason Hall, National
Model School, six other National Schools, and three Christian Brother
Schools, Fever Hospital, Bank of Ireland, Assembly Room,
and Military Barracks. At the present time a new Town Hall is nearing
conclusion. This building has cost close upon £8,000, and is an imposing and
ornate structure, adding materially to the appearance of that portion of the
town in which it is situate. Mr. William Batt, M.R.I.A., Belfast, is the
architect, and Mr. David Mahood, Newry, the builder. There are several corn,
flour, two weaving factories and spinning mills, six tan yards, three coach and car manufactories,
iron and brass foundries, and spade and shovel manufactories. The Bessbrook
and Newry Electrical Tramway is a notable means of transit which has been
recently established. The other
manufactories are linen, yarn, cotton, salt, iron, cordage, mineral water
works. Extensive water-works have been constructed at Camlough, and the town has an abundant supply of a prime necessary
of life. Quarter Sessions are held here for the County Down portion of the
town, as also in Ballybot, for a portion of the County Armagh. There is a
fair on the first Monday of every month in that portion of the town, in the
County Armagh called Ballybot; markets on Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Saturdays. Seven commodious market places have been laid out, and enclosed
in a most substantial manner by the Town Commissioners. The borough returns
one member to Parliament; constituency 2,400. The Bank of Ireland, the Northern,
the Belfast, and the
Provincial Banks have branches here. The port admits vessels of 2,000 tons
burthen to Warrenpoint, five miles from the town, where the larger vessels remain,
but those drawing fifteen feet of water can go up by ship canal to the Albert
Basin, Newry. Barges ply by the Newry Canal Navigation to Lough Neagh,
thirty two miles distant inland. The Newry Navigation Company have the
management of the port and canal, the latter of which extends along the west
side of the river, and that company are at present deepening the channel so
as to admit of large ships, drawing 24 feet of water, discharging at the
Doyle's Hole, beside the Victoria Locks. The Dundalk and Newry Steam Packet Company have done much to
develop the trade of the town. A screw steamer sails twice each week from the Albert
Basin for Ardrossan, and three splendid steamers ply twice a week between
Newry and Liverpool. Newry is favoured by having railway communication with
all parts of the country. Steam colliers trade between here,
and the coal ports in England and Scotland. The principal exports are linen,
cloth, grain, provisions, cattle, eggs, and butter. The paving, lighting and
cleansing of the streets are vested in eighteen Town Commissioners, who have
also the appointment of sanitary officers. The Town Commissioners own the Gas Works, and under the
skilful management of a
committee the town is well lighted. The cost of the gas is 4s. 7d per 1,000
cubic feet. In the neighbourhood of the town there are valuable quarries,
and beautiful specimens of the highly polished marble and granite taken from
the beds were greatly admired at the Philadelphia Exhibition. The excellent granite taken from the Moor Quarries,
the property of Messrs. H. Campbell & Son, is highly appreciated. It
presents a uniformity of texture and colouring, and it has this peculiarity
- its colour, a rich grey, remains unchanged. Even the largest stones show
few flaws. The blocks of granite taken from these quarries are of immense
size, and of best description. Specimens of this granite were granted a
very high award of merit at the Philadelphia Exhibition, 1876. The
other principal quarry owners are Messrs. T. H. M. Flynn, Samuel Cooper, R. Emerson,
A. Ewen & Sons, John Sturgeon, and
John McCullough.

NEWTOWNARDS
This
populous and prosperous town, the capital of the Ards district, is situated eight Irish miles
east of Belfast,
and at the Northern extremity of a large estuary, formerly known as Lough
Cuan, or Cowan, but now called Strangford Lough. Coal vessels have
occasionally come up as far as Anderson's Bank, within about two miles of
the town, but the water in the lough being shallow, no advantage has for so
far been taken of its proximity to the sea, although the project of cutting
a canal has on several occasions been before the public. Ballylisnevan is
the ancient name of the town, which covers an extended area, and the streets
of which are generally broad and laid off with geographical regularity. In
the centre of the town is Conway Square, the largest open space in any
Ulster town. It measures 120 yards from north to south, and 90 yards from
east to west, and is edificed with commendable regularity. On the north side
stands the Market house, which was erected in 1770 by Robert Stewart, first
Marquis of Londonderry. It is in the Grecian-Doric style of architecture,
surmounted by an elegant and well proportioned cupola, at the base of which
is the town clock. Upstairs there are a public lecture room, a ball room,
and a news room, and on the ground floor are caretaker's apartments,
weighing office, and Y.M.C.A. Rooms. At the foot of High Street,
and as near as possible to the centre of the old town, stands "The Old
Cross," which is an object of interest to the archaeologist, and which was
erected in the year 1636. It is of hewn stone, and octagonal in shape, and
besides displaying several heraldic devices, bears an almost obliterated
inscription, which sets forth that the armorial bearings of the Montgomerys,
which were "by rebels thrown down and defaced" in 1653, were "by the
citizens of this loyal borough replaced" in 1666. Not far from this are to
be seen the romantic looking and ivy clad ruins of the old Parish Church,
erected by Sir Hugh Montgomery. This is considered to be the remains of one
of the most complete past reformation churches built in Ulster prior to the
present century. It was for years used as a Court house, but at present is
the burying place of the Londonderry family. The remains of Frederick
William Robert, the fourth Marquis, were interred here in 1872, and a
handsome Celtic memorial cross, of Kingstown limestone, placed in the
building in 1875 by the Dowager Marchioness, his then wife, Elizabeth,
formerly Lady Jocelyn, daughter of the Earl of Roden. She died in the Roman
Catholic faith in 1885. Her remains lie alongside those of her husband, and
she caused to be erected the memorial cross referred to. About four miles
along the Portaferry Road in Mountstewart, the Irish residence of the noble
owner of the estate, the present Marquis of Londonderry, who was Viceroy of
Ireland from July, 1886, till September, 1889. The walled-in demesne is very
extensive, and the facade of the mansion is eminently handsome. A most
interesting ecclesiastical ruin is to be seen about a mile from the town,
where in the old cemetery of Magh Bile, or
Movilla, stand the remains of an Abbey said to have been founded about the year 550
by St. Finian, who died in 572. Several sculptured monumental tablets, one
of the oldest of which shows an Irish inscription, may be seen built in the
north wall. A new and handsome cemetery has recently been established
adjoining the old ground by the Newtownards Joint Burial Board. About three
miles in the direction of Crawfordsburn, at Clandeboye, is situated
Ballyleidy House, the Irish residence of the eminent and distinguished
diplomat, the Marquis of Dufferin of Ava, K.P. Excellent
building stones are obtained in Scrabo and the Glebe Quarries, and on the
top of Scrabo Hill is a striking monument, erected to the memory of Charles
Stewart, the third Marquis, well known as a distinguished cavalry officer in
the Peninsular war. The leading industries of the town and district are
weaving and embroidering for Belfast and Glasgow houses. The work comes to
agents, and is done by the weavers and sewers in their own houses. There
are, however, several public works. The Castle Gardens Mill, owned by
Messrs. George Walker & Co., Limited, employs about 600 persons, principally
young women, in spinning linen yarns and weaving heavy materials for mail
bags, hessians, girthweb, and linen tapes for saddlers, ironmongers, and
wholesale warehousemen. There are also two other large establishments in
Newtownards, namely - The Ards Weaving Co. and Glen Printing and Finishing
Co., whose works are situated on the Crawfordsburn Road, and who employ
nearly 1,000 hands engaged at damask power loom weaving, hemstitching and
finishing, plain and embroidered handkerchiefs, printing linen and muslin
goods, &c. Adjoining these buildings, there is at present being a bleach
green, which employs about 200 hands.
In another part of the town, Ann Street, has recently been established by
Mr. T. R. Lavery, an extensive factory for the manufacturing and embroidery
of handkerchiefs. Upwards of 100 hands are employed, principally females.
The starch works and corn mill of Messrs. John Taylor & Son, now the
property of Mr. James McCullough, employ numerous men and boys. Messrs.
William Dobbin & Sons manufacture a large number of quilts annually, and
their goods are famed for superior excellence throughout the United Kingdom.
Mr. James Apperson is engaged in the manufacture of shirtings, skirtings,
and shawls, as also Mr. Wm. Kirk. Mr. John Stevenson is proprietor of a
large hosiery establishment, in connection with which several hundred hands
are employed. The nurseries of Messrs. Alexander Dickson &
Sons, the eminent florists, are at the extreme west end of the town; and Mr.
W. Sibbald Johnston's chemical bleach works are at Kiltonga, a mile along
the Belfast Road. A cloth factory has recently been established by Mr. Grant
on the site of the Movilla Bleachworks. The Newtownards Chronicle and County Down
Observer is published weekly. Civil Bill and Licensing
Sessions are held quarterly, Land
and Equity Sessions twice a year, Petty Sessions on the second and fourth
Thursdays in each month; and the Presentment Sessions for Baronies of Lower
Ards and Lower Castlereagh, in May and December. There are excellent markets
under the management of the Town Commissioners. A fair is held on the second
Saturday of each month, and patent fairs on January 23rd, May 14th, and
September 23rd. In 1891 the population was estimated at 8,676, but it has
materially increased since the census was taken. In October, 1891, 555 persons were entitled to vote at an
election for Town Commissioners. The Belfast and County Down Railway has a
station at the north side of the town, and eight trains run to and from
Belfast daily. There are special late trains from Belfast on Friday and
Saturday evenings.

NEWTOWNBUTLER
Newtownbutler is a small town in South Fermanagh, with a population of about
350. It is a station on the Great Northern Railway, four miles from Clones,
and five from Lisnaskea. The town has been much admired for its situation,
its splendid house property, its wide and clean streets, and the peaceful
character of its inhabitants. About one third of the town property is owned
by some four or five residents, the remainder by Lord Lanesborough, whose
summer residence, Quivey Lodge, is situate on the banks of Lough Erne, some
four miles off South, whilst about the same distance from the town, and
within one mile off Quivey, stands the beautiful limestone castle of Colonel
Saunderson, M.P., known as Castle Saunderson. The historic battlefield of
Killgarret where the Battle of Newtownbutler was fought and won by the
Protestants in 1689, is close to the town on its southern side. Four miles
to the west stands the charming Crom woods, through which meanders the Erne
water. Here the Earl of Erne has his seat, the beautiful new castle standing
in sight of the ruins of the old one, which is for ever linked with
Newtownbutler in connection with the revolutionary period of 1688-90. During
the summer months great numbers of excursionists pass through Newtownbutler
on their way to historic Crom. about three miles to the north, on the road
to Lisnaskea, stands the ruins of another old castle - Manorwater House -
said to have been the scene of a bloody fight for three days, between its
owner and Cromwell's troops. Whilst three miles out on the Cavan road, on
the top of a high hill overlooking Wattle Bridge (now a stone bridge), will
be found one of those antiquarian wonders of the present day - a stone
circle composed of stones of enormous size standing on their ends, the whole
being termed locally, the Druid's Fort. Newtownbutler has three churches -
The Church of Ireland, Galloon; the Roman Catholic, and the Methodist; with
two National schools - one Protestant and one Roman Catholic. Annual Fair -
12th May. Market - Tuesday in each week. A Court of Quarter Sessions with
Petty Sessions on third Tuesday in each month are held in the town, which
also possesses a Town Hall and an Orange Hall.
