During the seventeenth century its larger and more imposing
neighbour, Derry, often overshadowed Strabane, in the west of
Ulster. Yet the story of Strabane in the later seventeenth century
is more typical of the urban experience of plantation Ulster
generally. This study follows the history of Strabane over the late
seventeenth and early eighteenth century, a period of social
development which is usually little written about in most
histories. It explores the role of the landlord, the earls of
Abercorn, and the corporation in the development of the town and
traces the history of the settlement and economy that emerged as a
result of their efforts. It also charts the evolution of local
social structures, forged to meet the needs of the fledging town.
This includes the emergence of the various confessional communities
in Strabane and the relations between them. A pioneering piece of
work on one of the small towns of Ireland.
