Download or read book Two Acres of Irish History written by Eamon Phoenix and published by Ulster Historical Foundation. This book was released on 2000-03-31 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friar's Bush is Belfast's oldest Christian Site. The quality of ancient mystery surrounding this old walled graveyard at Stranmillis has long fascinated historians. There is a tradition of a link with St. Patrick and strong evidence of a medieval friary on the site; it also served as a 'penal refuge' for the local Catholic community up to 1769. Indeed, in its manifold historical associations and monuments, Friar's Bush reflects the landmarks in local, Ulster and Irish history throughout the ages - frm the 'Penal Era' to the Irish Volunteers, from the Catholic Emancipation to the Great Famine and fromt he growth of Belfast to the First World War. This book has been designed specifically to meet the requirements of the 'Local Study' component of the Northern Ireland History Curriculum at Key Stage 3. It traces the exciting story of Friar's Bush and Belfast from the rich store of evidence available--artifacts, maps, letters, newspaper reports, ballads, and even paintings. A major focus is the transition from 'Penal Era' to 'Golden Age' in Belfast as symbolised by the opening of Old St Mary's in 1784.

This book was released on 2022-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rural Ireland and its agricultural way of life are emblematic of this country. For most of modern history, however, rural Ireland and Irish agriculture were comparatively underdeveloped. This changed dramatically in the twentieth century, during which they were transformed. In 1900 they were synonymous with poverty; by 2000 they had become synonymous with progress. Many people and organizations contributed to this, but chief among these were the Irish agricultural advisory services.First established in the early 1900s, they are today operated as a public service by Teagasc, Ireland's Agriculture and Food Development Authority. With their establishment, agricultural instructors, trained to the highest international standards, were dispatched to every community in rural Ireland. Their brief was to work with farmers, helping them to improve their farm enterprises and, in so doing, to develop rural Ireland. This gradually bore fruit, as each succeeding generation of agricultural advisors and farmers cooperated to adopt the most modern agricultural approaches. This book tells their story.
