Write a commentVisitors from near and far have experienced the outstanding heritage and landscape of South Armagh this summer already so if you want to see what your locality has to offer, there are several coach tours available this month.
This is your last chance to join the amazing tour guide, Una Walsh, as you make your way through the rolling hills of South Armagh, visiting built heritage sites of importance in the area.
The tours are available on Tuesday 13 September, Saturday 17 September with the final tour of the year taking place on Saturday 24 September. The tours are a great introduction to the Ring of Gullion for newcomers to the area while they also provide a trip down memory lane to reacquaint past residents to the stories of the townlands and the characters that use to them.
Newry, Mourne and Down District Council Chairperson, Councillor Gillian Fitzpatrick “Una’s passion and knowledge of the heritage and culture of the South Armagh area draws people in and brings the area alive. We have being inundated with positive reviews about Una and the tour so I would recommend booking your seat quickly before they sell out. Call up a few of your favorite travel companions or family to escape for a while on this relaxing coach tour of South Armagh, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.”
Tickets start at £10 for adults with concessions and family tickets available. The coach will leave Bagenal's Castle, Newry at 10.30am and return at 4.30pm.
Booking is essential, to book please visit www.ringofgullion.org or call 028 3082 8590.
