Publication Account (1995)
The Hanover Square and surrounding modern developments conceal the late nineteenth and twentieth-century squalor and jerry-building that was the home for many Irish immigrants, and are an indication of a new, more enlightened thinking.

Information from ‘Historic Stranraer: The Archaeological Implications of Development’ (1995).
