A campaign has been launched in an effort to bring one the most historic sites in Omagh back into public ownership.
A meeting took place in the town this week from a group of campaigners hoping to preserve the Governor’s House, which formed part of Omagh Gaol until it closed in the early 1900s. The building is now up for sale, with a number of offers believed to have been made on it from private bidders.
Local historian Vincent Brogan is one of those keen to see the unique eight-sided building preserved, and says it represents a special opportunity to bring the building back into public ownership.
