I have also contributed articles to two books: one on Bangor townlands to Every Stoney Acre has a Name (ed. Canavan) and the other on Ballymagee townland to Townlands in Ulster (ed. Crawford & Foy) The focus of my current research is the development of Bangor as a seaside resort 1831-1914 - causes and impact.
