During the reign of James I, an official scheme was drawn up for
the "plantation" of West Ulster. However, the actual area settled
by new colonists was much more extensive. With them came
innovation. Permanent dwellings of a more sophisticated
construction became the norm. The spread of hedged enclosures
heralded innovations in agriculture. The settlers also brought with
them a new language, new surnames, new religion and of course a
change in political and historical allegiances. This account shows
how colonisation on the ground was not as much influenced either by
the London Government or by the new landowners as has often been
assumed. The author also demonstrates how seeds of bitterness were
quickly sown between the Protestant settlers and the Catholic
natives whom they had displaced, with consequences that last to
this day.
