This is a new facility provided by Clogher Historical Society in 2005, designed to improve co-operation between heritage groups in the border area and to provide a point of contact for small groups who do not have their own websites. If you are looking for information on a particular town or parish, there may be a local heritage group that has specialist information. Click here to enter the heritage network pages of this site.
