 | Dromore, County Down, Northern Ireland A short video of Dromore, County Down, Northern Ireland. Dromore is a small market town twenty miles south of Belfast on the main road to Dublin. It's name derives from the Gaelic Drum Mor, which means 'Great Ridge.' This great ridge is the Norman Castle (Motte and Bailey), known locally as The Mound. The video is taken from the top of the mound, overlooking the town, and begins by looking at the mound from the bottom. Dromore also contains the Cathedral Church of Christ the Redeemer, one of the Church of Ireland (Anglican) Cathedrals for the diocese of Down and Dromore - the other being in Downpatrick. The River Lagan flows through the town on its way from Slieve Croob in the Dromara Hills to Belfast and out to the sea. Dromore was the scene of the first Williamite battle in Ireland, as the Williamite Council of the North stood against the advancing Jacobite troops, just over one year before the Battle of the Boyne. The Jacobites were victorious, but William was able to pass through Dromore on his way to the Boyne in 1690. I hope you enjoy this view of the town and the surrounding countryside. |
