Geocache Description:


Newtownhamilton or simply Newtown to locals is a small town in South Armagh. Before the Plantation of Ulster it was known as Tullyvallen and was renamed by Alexander Hamilton in 1773 and was once an important stop off between Armagh and Dundalk. The town has suffered in past decades from the rise of other towns in the area like Markethill, Castleblaney and Bessbrook as well as cities like Newry and Armagh becoming little more than a group of houses and small shops. This series will highlight a few local areas of history and interest. Ballymoyer LOL 106 or Synotts True Blues is the first Orange Lodge in Newtownhamilton District. The hall was opened in 1986 after their previous hall was bombed during the 70's. The lodge is one of the largest in the district and currently has about 26 members. They are let by Synotts True Blues flute band and both the lodge and the band take their name from the Synott Family who lived a few miles further down this road towards Whitecross. http://www.armaghorange.co.uk/9newtownhamilton/lol106.htm
