parade in 45 years
19.05.09
TAUGHBOYNE in Carrigans
enjoyed a big celebration last week when it hosted
its first Orange parade in 45 years. Around 150
members of the Order took part in the Royal Arch
Purple Chapter parade as it wended its way along the
one mile route from Monreagh to Taughboyne Parish
Church on a gloriously sunny Sunday, May 10. |

The paraders, hosted by
Carrigans LOL 1897, were led by the
Newtowncunningham True Blues Accordion Band. The
service was conducted by Reverend David Crooks who
informed those assembled that the last Orange
service in Taughboyne was held in 1964. |
