Tighter security at Long Kesh

IN September 1971 army and police chiefs were to ensure that the area adjacent to the Long Kesh Internment Camp was given greater protection.

More men would be on the ground during visiting hours to prevent a recurrence of an incident when local residents stoned four opposition MP's 'k and a bus taking relatives of the internees into the camp.

The residents wanted the gate of the camp removed from opposite the housing estate at Coronation Gardens to another spot and they requested a tighter control of their area.

Flush toilets for Drumbo cottages

RESIDENTS in the Drumbo area in September 1969 were still awaiting the 20th century luxury promised them for 14 years - a flush toilet!

They lived in a row of 21 council cottages sited just south of Drumbo village which were built after the war 'for country people'. Most other houses in the district were connected to a septic tank system.
