Description

This short documentary was created by Vinny Cunningham for the Tower Museum about The Honourable The Irish Society. The Society has a central role in the history of the city. Created in 1609 and incorporated in 1613 by royal charter of James I, the society funded the construction of their home city’s famous walls and the Guild Hall.

This documentary details The Honourable The Irish Society’s history as an organisation for the planting of Ulster and its transformation into its current function as a charitable body.
