Armagh
Armagh is the county town of County Armagh within Northern Ireland. It is the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland-- the seat of the Archbishops of Armagh, the Primates of All Ireland for both the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of Ireland. In the early period, the town and its nearby Navan Fort, Eamhain Mhacha, was one of the famous royal capitals of pagan Gaelic Ireland. Despite being categorised as a medium-sized town, Armagh was presented city status in 1994 and Lord Mayoralty status in 2012, both by Queen Elizabeth II. With reference to the permanent resident population of 14,749 people measured at the time of the 2011 Census, it is the city with the least population in Northern Ireland as well as the 4th smallest in the UK. Armagh has long been a centre of learning, and is often known as 'the city of saints and scholars'. The academic culture was continued throughout the centuries, with the opening of the Royal School in 1608 and the Armagh Observatory in 1790 as vivid symbols of this recognised reputation. To fight the problem of a dwindling city centre and to resolve the issues of local people, Armagh City and District Council chose to upgrade the exteriors and general appeal of the main shopping areas. It will restore the centre of Armagh, converting it into a premium pedestrianised environment. Along with new street designs, the look of the city centre is intended to be increased by updated lighting, paving, seating, bins and greenery. For all of your home upgrades, ensure to pick trustworthy professionals in Armagh to make certain of a top quality service.
