History group launches new book

DROMARA History Group which has been meeting for the past 15 years, has launched a new book.

Members of the group have often said that they should write a book and record information for future generations.

This has now at last been done and the group will be launching its book, 'Dromara In The Shadow of Slieve Croob, The Source of the River Lagan’ on Wednesday, June 9, in the Lagan Park Centre, Dromara, at 7.30pm.
