This two hour guided tour explores the lives of some of the women buried in Friars Bush Graveyard
Thought to be Belfast's oldest Christian burial ground, Friars Bush has a wealth of women's stories waiting to be uncovered. The tour focuses on telling these women’s stories with accuracy and respect, offering a fuller picture of the past and reminding us that history is made not only by wealthy businessmen and merchants but also by their sisters, wives and daughters whose influence was also apparent.
