PORTADOWN
- A market town, partly in the parish of SEAGOE, barony of O'Neiland
East, but chiefly in the parish of DRUMCREE, barony of O'Neilland
West, county of Armagh, is 84 miles N. from Dublin, 26 S.W. by W.
from Belfast, 19 W.S.W. from Lisburn, 15 E. from Dungannon, 10 N.E.
by N. from Armagh, 4 S. from Lough Neagh, 6-1/2 E. by N. from Loughgall,
5-1/2 S.W. from Lurgan, the same distance N.E. from Richhill, and
4-1/2 N.W. by N. from Gilford; eligibly situated on the river Bann,
over which is a Stone bridge of five arches, connecting it with
the small suburb of EDENDERRY, in the parish of SEAGOE.
The Newry canal joins the river about a mile above the town, and
the latter falls into Lough Neagh at its southern side, and issuing
at the opposite point loses itself in the sea below Coleraine, thus
forming, in connection with the canal, a water communication between
that place and Newry. This is now but little used, consequent on
the opening of railway communication with all parts of the country.
The Great Northern and the Ulster lines of railway have a joint
Station conveniently close to the town.
The ancient name of this place was Port-ne-doon, signifying the
"Port of the fortified eminence," from a castle of the
M'Cann's, who occupied this important Station, commanding the pass
of the river Bann. In the reign of Charles I, Portadown consisted
of no more than three or four small houses, and was granted by that
monarch, with the estate, to J. P. Obyns, Esq. It now consists of
a well-built principal Street, and several smaller Streets branching
from it in various directions. In 1780 a general grain market was
established by the late Major Obyns and John Woodhouse, Esq. and
of late years the weekly sales of corn have greatly increased. The
trade in other agricultural produce is also great, and is much promoted
by the situation of the place, in the centre of an extensive and
fertile district, and the facile means in possession of transmission
to distant parts.
The manufacture of linen, cambric, and sheeting is carried on extensively
in the town and neighbourhood, and affords employment to a considerable
number of persons. Banking accommodation is amply supplied by branches
of the Bank of Ireland, the Belfast Banking Company, and the Ulster
Banking Company. Petty sessions are held on the second and fourth
Mondays in each month. The general appearance of the town is cleanly
and respectable. The principal Street contains a number of excellent
retail establishments.
The town is also well lighted with gas, and is governed by a chairman
and commissioners elected triennially under the Towns Improvement
Act of 1834. The Protestant Episcopal church of Drumcree, situated
about a mile from the town, is a handsome edifice, in the early
English Style, with a tower at the eastern end ; and the parish
church of Seagoe, which forms a very pleasing object in the landscape,
Stands about an English mile north, in the midst of a finely wooded
and well-cultivated district. St. Mark's Church, a neat Structure
with a square tower, Stands in the town: as do also Presbyterian
meeting houses, and chapels respectively for Primitive and Wesleyan
Methodists. The Roman Catholic Church is situated in William Street.
|
The charitable institutions comprise dispensaries for the sick poor,
a fever hospital, and public schools. The court house and news room, in
High Street, is a handsome and ornamental Structure. A good market place
and shambles were erected by subscription, and placed under the superintendence
of a committee. The general market is held on Saturday, and one for grain,
hay and Straw on Wednesday. Fairs, the third Saturday in every month.
The town contained in 1861, 5,528 inhabitants, and in 1871, 6,735.
