County Fermanagh
Fermanagh, an inland county in
the Province of Ulster.
Greatest length (N. W. and S. E.), 45 miles; greatest breadth (N. E. and S. W.),
29 miles; comprising an area of 714 square miles, or 457,195 acres, of which
289,228 are arable; 114,847 uncultivated, 6,155 in plantations, 210 in towns
and 46,755 under water. Lough Erne, its most attractive feature,
extends from one extremity to the other for forty-five miles in a N.W.
direction; it bisects the county, and is divided into Upper and Lower.
The Upper extends from Wattle Bridge to Enniskillen; the Lower from
Enniskillen to Rosscor, where its waters are contracted and form the River
Erne, which extends to the County Donegal and falls into the sea at
Ballyshannon. It is navigable through its whole extent to the fall at
Belleek, within three miles of Ballyshannon, and a steamer of 20 horse power
plies between Enniskillen and Beleek daily on the lower lake. The
soil is variable, heavy, and retentive of moisture, light and friable, and moorish. Coal and iron ore are found in small quantities,
and there are
sand and limestone in abundance. The trade in butter is considerable;
and the linen manufacture, of a coarse description, chiefly for domestic
use, is carried on to a small extent. The population in 1851 was
116,007, and in 1861, 105,768. It is
chiefly in Clogher diocese, with a small portion in that of Kilmore.
The only large town is Enniskillen. The county returns three members
to Parliament - two for the county - constituency, about 4,800; and one for
Enniskillen borough - constituency, 250. The Assizes are held in
Enniskillen, where the County Prison is. Quarter Sessions are held at
Enniskillen and Newtownbutler.
The County Infirmary is in Enniskillen; and the District Lunatic Asylum, to
which the county is entitled to send 21 patients, is at Omagh,
County Tyrone. The Union Workhouses are at Enniskillen, Lisnaskea and Lowtherstown.
There are barrack stations at Enniskillen and Belleek. The net annual
value of property under the Tenement Valuation Act is £232,687.
