Get Banbridge [pros|landscapers]

The town of Banbridge is in Northern Ireland’s County Down. It’s located around the River Bann and a dual carriageway, with its name coming from a bridge that was built across the River Bann in 1712. It’s a part of the civil parish of Seapatrick and the historic barony of Iveagh Upper, Upper Half. Banbridge is at present the administrative centre for the Banbridge District Council. As per the 2011 Census, the town has a resident population of roughly 16653. It is classed as a medium town and of the population, 24.4 percent were aged under 16 years, 16.1% were more than 60 years of age, and 49.5% were male, leaving 50.5 percent as female. The town emerged as a coach stop for the road between Belfast and Dublin, and it prospered from the manufacture of Irish linen. A striking part of the town is its distinctive main street, which rises to a steep hill ahead of levelling out. An underpass had to be constructed in 1834 because of the steep street causing horses with heavy loads to faint before they could get to the top of the hill. Built by William Dargan, it’s officially called the Downshire Bridge, although it is frequently referred to as ‘The Cut’. The town is broadly recognized for being close to the Bronte Homeland in Rathfriland, attracting quite a few guests because of this. Another attraction is the annual busking festival, ‘Buskfest’, which has been running since 2004. Participants have often travelled long distances to busk, and the competition finishes with an evening concert consisting of performances by recognised artists.
