There are scenes of the linen industry (the town's most important manufacturing activity), the ropeworks (the oldest in Ireland), and the railway. The book features many of the major influences on the social life of this community, such as the churches, the temperance movement, and the war years. Several local 'characters' make their appearances as well as a selection of Banbridge's famous sons. Major events are also covered in excellent details.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780717126439\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedLikeNew\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pigeonhouse Books, Dublin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53449851830599,"sku":"K2-FCLV-TNTR","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0293\/7474\/2572\/files\/31rji6ZfGQL_b76fda91-7845-4eda-9a3c-4f344f20080d.jpg?v=1772577899","url":"https:\/\/www.pigeonhousebooks.com\/products\/banbridge-images-of-ireland","provider":"Pigeonhouse Books, Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
