Views wanted on new plan to protect the heritage of Co Tyrone

A series of meetings are to take place across Tyrone to discuss ways of protecting the county’s heritage.

Fermanagh and Omagh District Council has announced the development of the district’s first-ever Heritage Plan.

The plan is being created as a strategy to safeguard, celebrate, and enhance the rich and diverse heritage of the local region.

A council spokesperson said: “Across the district, history is a vibrant element of everyday life. It’s an area rich with natural beauty, historic buildings, and a culture rooted in language, storytelling, music and folklore.

“The landscape itself tells a story, with peaceful lakes, winding rivers, and varied terrain with a little piece of history around every corner. We are the caretakers of our heritage, managing and enhancing its unique charm and identity so that it stays relevant for future generations.

“We are seeking your input to help shape and influence the priorities for heritage in Fermanagh and Omagh over the next five years.”
