Places to see in ( Dungannon - UK )
Places to see in ( Dungannon - UK )
Dungannon is a town in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. It is the third-largest town in the county. The Dungannon and South Tyrone Borough Council had its headquarters in the town, though since 2015 it has been covered by Mid-Ulster District Council.
For centuries, it was the 'capital' of the O'Neill dynasty, who dominated most of Ulster and built a castle on the hill. After the O'Neills' defeat in the Nine Years' War, the English founded a plantation town on the site, which grew into what is now Dungannon. Dungannon has won Ulster in Bloom's Best Kept Town Award five times. It currently has the highest percentage of immigrants of any town in Northern Ireland.
For centuries, Dungannon's fortunes were closely tied to that of the O'Neill dynasty which ruled a large part of Ulster until the 17th century. Dungannon was the clan's main stronghold. The traditional site of inauguration for 'The O'Neill', was Tullyhogue Fort, an Iron Age mound some four miles northeast of Dungannon. The clan O'Hagan were the stewards of this site for the O'Neills. In the 14th century the O'Neills built a castle on what is today known as Castle Hill; the location was ideal for a fort as it was one of the highest points in the area, and dominated the surrounding countryside with the ability to see seven counties depending on the weather.
An interesting feature of the town is the former police barracks at the top right-hand corner of the market square which is quite unlike any other barracks of a similar vintage in Ireland. A popular but apocryphal story relates that the unusual design of this building is due to a mix-up with the plans in Dublin which meant Dungannon got a station designed for the Nepal and they got a standard Irish barracks, complete with a traditional Irish fireplace. Dungannon Park is a seventy-acre oasis centred round an idyllic still-water lake, with miles of pathways and views of the surrounding townland.
Dungannon is in the southeast of County Tyrone, within the historic barony of Dungannon Middle and the civil parish of Drumglass. The town grew up around a hill, known locally as Castle Hill. There are three small lakes on the southern edge of town, the biggest of which is Black Lough. There are also two parks in the eastern part of town: Dungannon Park and Windmill Park. Surrounding settlements include Moygashel (a village at the southern edge of Dungannon), Coalisland (to the northeast), Donaghmore (to the northwest) and Castlecaulfield (to the west).
Dungannon is linked to the M1 motorway, which runs from the southeast of the town to Belfast. There is an Ulsterbus town bus service that runs daily that serves the town's suburbs. The Irish gauge 1,600 mm (5 ft 3 in) Portadown, Dungannon and Omagh Junction Railway (PD&O) linked the town with Portadown from 1858 and Omagh from 1861.

Places to see in ( Strabane - UK )
Strabane, historically spelt Straban, is a town in West Tyrone, Northern Ireland. It was the headquarters of the former Strabane District Council. Strabane has a population of around 18,000, which is predominantly nationalist.
It is the second-largest town in Tyrone, after Omagh. It lies on the east bank of the River Foyle and is roughly equidistant from Omagh, Derry City and Letterkenny. The River Foyle marks the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. On the other side of the river (across Lifford Bridge) is the smaller town of Lifford, which is the county town of County Donegal. The Mourne flows through the centre of the town, and meets the Finn to form the Foyle River.
In the 20th century, Strabane garnered the dubious distinction of the highest unemployment rate in the Industrial World, during the height of The Troubles. It is one of the most economically deprived towns in the United Kingdom. Huge economic damage occurred in 1987 when much of the town centre flooded.
The Irish gauge 5 ft 3 in (1,600 mm) Londonderry and Enniskillen Railway (L&ER) reached Strabane in 1847, The Finn Valley Railway (FV) opened from Strabane to Stranorlar in 1863.[10][12] The FV was originally Irish gauge but in 1892 it merged with the 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge West Donegal Railway (WD) to form the Donegal Railway.
In 1792, the 4 miles (6.4 km) Strabane Canal was built from the tidal waters of Lough Foyle at Leck, to Strabane. It fell into disuse in 1962. In June 2006 the Strabane Lifford Development Commission awarded a £1.3m cross-border waterways restoration contract. The project was launched by President of Ireland, Mary McAleese, in Lifford and involves the restoration of 1.5 miles (2.4 km) of canal and two locks to working order.
The National Trust owns a Strabane shop in which John Dunlap learnt the printing trade. Dunlap went on to print the United States Declaration of Independence. The house has been visited by several famous people, including former US President Bill Clinton. It is located at the end of the Main Street.Which is now a classic cafe.
Dergalt, the ancestral home of Woodrow Wilson, 28th President of the United States, is near Strabane. Strabane is twinned with Zeulenroda-Triebes in the state of Thuringia, Germany.

Top 10 Worst Places to Live in England
Get more Tips here! destinationtips.com
According to ilivehere.co.uk, which has been compiling this list for more than a decade, with the votes from thousands of readers, these are the WORST places to live in England.
10: Blackpool
Once famed for its golden mile, Blackpool now conjures up images of drunken stags and hens, falling over in the street and spewing on themselves, before retiring to a grotty seaside B&B.
9: Oldham
The most deprived town in England according to the ONS, where the streets have been described as “graffiti covered, fly-tipped shells of what they once were”.
8: Sunderland
has the highest rate of teen pregnancies in Europe.
sexual offences, violent crime and theft are all on the up and are higher than the national average. (I’ve seen policemen on pedal bikes chasing chavs in stolen cars. You might not believe it but I really have seen it!)
7: Gravesend
One voter comments: I have lived in Gravesend all my life. I have visited many other crap towns across Kent like Lewisham, Dartford, Chatham and so on and not one so far, has even came near to being as chav infested as Gravesend.
6. BRADFORD
A Commenter says: Bradford is literally hell on earth. The city centre resembles a squalid cess pit, full of monstrous partially demolished 60’s concrete office blocks, Pound shops, amusement arcades, prostitutes, heroin addicts, Eastern European car-jackers, Asian drug dealers, pre-pubescent mums and mad alcoholic tramps having arguments with themselves.
Being the sixth largest city in the country, in terms of population, it now boasts another famous serial killer...
5: ROCHDALE
One in seven people in Rochdale had no qualifications at all. Weekly earnings were £413 on average last year, compared to £676 in London.

A town once voted the least romantic place in the country.
Apparently Maccy Ds is a chav’s staple diet. Well the small town of Scunthorpe has 3.

Black, White, Asian it doesn’t matter, everyone looks like they’re trying to escape or have given up hope on life itself.

1. DOVER
Apparentñy Dover only beat Hull by 16 votes.
One reader comments;
Let us for a moment imagine that the British Isles are the silhouette of an old man. Scotland is his cap, Cornwall his toes, Anglia his curved spine, making Dover his herpes infested s**t-hole.

Coleraine is a large town and civil parish near the mouth of the River Bann in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. Coleraine is 55 miles northwest of Belfast and 30 miles east of Derry, both of which are linked by major roads and railway connections. Coleraine is part of Causeway Coast and Glens district.
The North Coast (Coleraine and Limavady) area has the highest property prices in Northern Ireland, higher even than those of affluent South Belfast. Golf courses, countryside and leisure facilities and attractions are to be found. It has an attractive town centre, and a marina. Coleraine during the day is a busy town, however at night the town is relatively quiet, with much of the nightlife in the area located in the nearby seaside towns of Portrush and Portstewart. Coleraine is also home to the one of the largest Polish communities in Northern Ireland.
Coleraine is situated at the lowest bridgeable point of the River Bann, where the river is 90 metres wide. The town square is called 'The Diamond' and is the location of the Town Hall. St. Patrick's Church of Ireland is situated nearby. The University of Ulster campus was built in the 1960s and has brought a theatrical space to the town in the form of the Riverside Theatre.
Coleraine has a large catchment area. The town also has the advantage of being near some of the most extraordinary landscape in the whole of Europe. In 2002, Coleraine won the Best Kept Town and Ulster in Bloom awards. In 2003, it was selected to represent Northern Ireland in the prestigious Britain in Bloom competition. In the 2010 SuperValu Best Kept Awards, Coleraine was named the Best Kept Large Town in Northern Ireland
Coleraine is the main town of the world famous Causeway Coast, which attracts over three million visitors per year, spending in excess of £47 million. The world famous Giant's Causeway is a twenty–five-minute bus ride away. The distillery village of Bushmills is well-served by buses from the town and there is a narrow-gauge steam train running in the summer from Bushmills to the Giant's Causeway. The train journey takes approximately fifteen minutes from the town to the Causeway. Also north of Coleraine is the scenic coastal town of Portstewart, with fine sandy beach and coastal walks. Portrush is part of the Borough.
North-west of Coleraine lies the small village of Castlerock, with a beach which is essentially a continuation of the beach at Portstewart, separated by the River Bann. Also nearby is the huge beach at Benone Strand and Mussenden Temple, built by Frederick Augustus Hervey, an 18th-century Anglican bishop atop a precipitate cliff and overlooking County Donegal in one direction and Scotland in another. The National Trust managed Downhill forest was part of the Bishop's Palace, and although the Palace itself is now a ruin the gardens are a wonderful place full of strange hidden lakes and gloriously tended flower gardens.

Ulster Folk Museum - Holywood - Early 20th Century Life
The Ulster Folk Museum or the Cultra Folk Park is an event location for a visit any day of the week. The site is also known as the Belfast Folk Museum or the Folk and transport Museum. Situated just outside of Belfast - in a small town called Cultra and Holywood - it's a 10 minute drive from Belfast City.
Ulster Folk Museum is one part of two different museums which are both situated in the same place and which are the Ulster Folk Museum and the Ulster Transport Museum ( The Folk Museum is for the aim of illustrating the way of life and traditions of the people of Northern Ireland, both in the past and in the present. This is where our trip was this time and where we got introduced to the way people are and were living.
Ulster Folk and Transport Museum ranks as one of the top attractions in Belfast, Northern Ireland - after being there and touring the place, we could now understand the reason behind that; it really tells a lot about the lives of the Irish people.
Ulster Folk Museum has a variety of old buildings and dwellings which were all located in various parts of Ireland and then were taken and rebuilt once again in this museum grounds in order to illustrate the rural way of life in the early 20th century. One of the aims of this museum is to recreate this whole period and the life of it, so it is not just about the buildings but the museum also managed to complete this period with the farms, cottages, crops, and livestock.
Stepping into Ulster Folk Museum is like entering a whole new city but which is more of a historical one, where people are wearing different clothes and are living their lives in a different kind of way. It is interesting to pass by all these buildings and see those real people who are wearing costumes of the old times and pretending to live back that life while you are still wearing the same clothes and doing the same things.
Walking in the world of this museum will give you the chance to see some of the things and activities that the old people were used to do and which include open hearth cooking, printing, needlework, and traditional Irish crafts demonstrations. Coming to understand how these things are done might not be an easy thing unless you start watching them in real and that is exactly what is offered to you in Ulster Folk Museum.
Knowing more about the life of the Irish people back in the early 20th century is interesting and what doubles this interest is the things which one will get to see while being there and which are related to the unusual relics from Ulster's past, such as the unusual waffle iron from the mid 19th-century, the old 'poteen' distillery from Portmore and the first win axle bicycle ever seen in Ireland.
The feeling of being in a whole new city but traveling back in time is one of the different reasons why lots of people love to visit Ulster Folk Museum, but in addition to these buildings and watching how people used to do some activities, there are also those galleries and exhibitions which are found there, these exhibitions are usually temporary and from those which were held there, there is They Love Music Mightily an exhibition featuring contemporary recordings of Irish traditional music, and Meet the Victorians which was focusing on the aspects of the Victorian life.
Ulster Folk Museum is the holder of Northern Ireland's main film, photographic, television and sound archives, and it also has a large library that contains over 15,000 books and periodicals; these are open to the public but only during the office hours, so you could get the chance to visit them and check what they have to offer back to you from history.
It is really interesting to walk in a museum where you are passing by those wearing costumes from the old times that give you the feeling that you have traveled back to that time - the people, the transportation cars inside, the crafts and the activities are all done as if these people are still living from that old age.
Being in Belfast to visit Ulster Folk Museum should bring you to some of the other attractions in the city and those different things to do there and the places to see ( Going through the long list of places to visit in the capital city of Northern Ireland, you will pass by the famous Cathedral Quarter that is found in the centre of the city ( checking City Hall in Belfast ( going to Belfast Castle ( and reaching St. Anne's Cathedral (
There are lots of things to be done and seen in Belfast and visiting Ulster Folk Museum is one of them, it will bring lots of information to your mind!
