Newry is to host a Cross Border Summer School Study Day by the Ulster Architectural Heritage Society and the Irish Georgian Society. The event being held in June 2022 will receive financial support from Newry, Mourne and Down Council.
The event will bring over 50 students, enthusiasts and practitioners together to explore, discuss and debate issues relating to our shared architectural and cultural heritage.
Explaining the idea behind the Summer School a Spokesperson said "The core theme of the 2022 Summer School Study Day will focus on Newry: A City Rediscovered. Encouraged by the rediscovery of Bagenal's Castle, UAH and IGS want to shine a new light on Newry, rediscovering its built heritage."
Organisers plan to visit Bagenal's Castle, Riverside Reformed Presbyterian Church and the Non Subscribing Presbyterian Church while a walking tour will take in St Colman's Hall, Merchant's Quay, Bank of Ireland, St Mary's Church, Newry Town Hall and Newry Cathedral.
