Ballintoy and District Local Historical and Archaeological Society

Parish Hall
junction of Whitepark and Ballinlea Roads

Greetings,

I was wondering if you could give our small historical society - Ballintoy And District Local Historicial and Archaeological Society - a plug on your blog?

We have just recently formed and our first official meeting is on the 25th March in Ballintoy Parish Hall at 8 pm - I have attached a copy of our circular.

Archaeologist Thomas McErlean, BA (QUB); FSA, Centre for Maritime Archaeology - University of Ulster at Coleraine, will be the guest speaker at the meeting.

We are a small cross community group with big aspirations'! We plan to meet each month with a guest speaker relating in some way to the local historical and archaeological past of the Ballintoy and wider "shore" area and we are planning to have guided walks in the evenings over the summer months.

We have had a good response so far and we hope to build upon this success in the coming months so every little bit of publicity would be very helpful.

Thank-you & Best Wishes

Shaun Leighton
(Secretary).
