Download or read book The First Great Charity of This Town written by Olwen Purdue and published by Merrion Press. This book was released on 2022-08-24 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Belfast Charitable Society was established in 1752 with the purpose of raising funds to build a poorhouse and hospital for the poor of Belfast; twenty years later, the foundation stone of the Poorhouse was laid. From here the Society would go on to assume increasing responsibility for a range of matters relating to health, welfare and public order, and its members would play a key part in the civic life of Belfast. It continues to provide vital social services to this day and its Poorhouse, now Clifton House, is still one of the finest buildings in the city. During the century following the establishment of the Society, Belfast was transformed from a relatively small mercantile town into a major industrial city, a transformation that was accompanied by political upheaval and the major societal challenges associated with rapid industrialisation and urban growth. Taking as its focus the work of the Society, the global connections that influenced its thinking and the societal issues it sought to address, this fascinating volume provides valuable insights into the wider social, economic and political life of the nineteenth-century Irish town of which the Society became such an iconic part.
Download or read book Middle Class Life in Victorian Belfast written by Alice Johnson and published by Reappraisals in Irish History. This book was released on 2020-02-29 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book vividly reconstructs the social world of upper middle-class Belfast during the time of the city's greatest growth, between the 1830s and the 1880s. Using extensive primary material including personal correspondence, memoirs, diaries and newspapers, the author draws a rich portrait of Belfast society and explores both the public and inner lives of Victorian bourgeois families. Leading business families like the Corrys and the Workmans, alongside their professional counterparts, dominated Victorian Belfast's civic affairs, taking pride in their locale and investing their time and money in improving it. This social group displayed a strong work ethic, a business-oriented attitude and religious commitment, and its female members led active lives in the domains of family, church and philanthropy. While the Belfast bourgeoisie had parallels with other British urban elites, they inhabited a unique place and time: 'Linenopolis' was the only industrial city in Ireland, a city that was neither fully Irish nor fully British, and at the very time that its industry boomed, an unusually violent form of sectarianism emerged. Middle-Class Life in Victorian Belfast provides a fresh examination of familiar themes such as civic activism, working lives, philanthropy, associational culture, evangelicalism, recreation, marriage and family life, and represents a substantial and important contribution to Irish social history.

Download or read book Georgian Belfast 1750 1850 written by Charles Edward Bainbridge Brett and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1850, a set of maps was prepared and printed for Belfast for the purpose of sales through the Incumbered Estates Court. Over a century later, C.E.B. Brett laboriously transferred in pencil the basic information contained in the leases of the Donegall family onto the printed maps. The annotated plans trace the history of individual plots, providing an unprecedented visual record of the buildings and trades of Belfast people through the Georgian period. This source has been known to scholars for some time but not extensively used. Georgian Belfast, 1750-1850 reproduces each of the twenty-eight sheets in large format and colour, drawing attention to this unique documentation of the town. The maps are introduced in part I by an historical essay on the relations between the town and the Donegall family by W.A. Maguire and an account of the maps, the leases and the Incumbered Estates Court by C.E.B. Brett. Part II contains the maps with commentaries on their content by Raymond Gillespie. This section also provides extracts from comparable maps of Belfast and views of particular buildings. Part III completes the books with a directory compiled by C.E.B. Brett on the tradespeople mentioned in the leases.
