Armagh
Armagh is the county town of County Armagh in 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 also the Church of Ireland. In historic times, the town and its neighbouring Navan Fort, Eamhain Mhacha, was one of the famed royal capitals of pagan Gaelic Ireland. Despite being categorised as a medium-sized town, Armagh was granted city status in 1994 and Lord Mayoralty status in 2012, both by Queen Elizabeth II. As per the permanent resident population of 14,749 individuals noted at the time of the 2011 Census, it is the city with the lowest population in Northern Ireland as well as the 4th smallest in the UK. Armagh has for a lengthy period of time been a centre of education and learning, and is commonly referred to as 'the city of saints and scholars'. The academic custom continued throughout the centuries, with the opening of the Royal School in 1608 and the Armagh Observatory in 1790 as vibrant symbols of this well established reputation. To combat the problem of a reducing city centre and to resolve the concerns of local individuals, Armagh City and District Council opted to update the exteriors and general appeal of the major shopping areas. It will renovate the centre of Armagh, converting it into a high quality pedestrianised environment. As well as new street layouts, the visual appeal of the city centre is planned to be increased by new lighting, paving, seating, bins and greenery. For all of your home renovations, make sure to utilise trustworthy professionals in Armagh to make certain of top quality work.
