'Unrecognisable': The changing face of Armagh's Upper English Street
Good morning. Some of us are probably still counting the cost of Storm Darragh. There’s no better way to spend a Monday morning than on the phone to inundated roofers! It’s only 12 days until the winter solstice and then it’s nothing but straight road to summer….
Anyway, while the weather might not be changing any time soon, Upper English Street, in the heart of Armagh city centre, has seen a fair few changes over the last 18 months or so. Scott got the lowdown on those changes. Read the full story here.
