The Palace Stables And Demesne

room 3 ECHOES

Location: Armagh, Armagh City and Banbridge and Craigavon, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom

This is an Audio Tour of a public park/historical grounds once built and owned by Archbishop Richard Robinson in the Town of Armagh, the grounds are 300 acres in size and hosts many different uses such as Golf Course, Cross Country Biking, Rugby Club/Fields and Forest Walks. It was once the residence of the Archbishop’s of The Church of Ireland from 1770 to 1975. The Georgian Buildings that were constructed in 1770 still stand today.

In this Audio Tour I will talk about the history of the Palace, the experiences you can have here and why I feel towns and cities need places like this.
