PROFORMA TO TOM

I have sent my proforma to Tom and he appears to be happy with my progress to date. I feel that I need to start thinking about structuring my mindmap with reference to my project.  As I delve deeper into this project I find there are many strands of research open to me. 

On Saturday I had a chance meeting with a local Newry and Mourne District Councillor who has been involved with the work on the resurfacing of the original tramline between Bessbrook and Newry, which is (much to his dissappointment) only partially completed.  This tarmac route takes the walker along the old route of the tram and makes for a very interesting walkway however it remains unfinished and is presently only a loop of half of the 3 mile track.

Hope to follow up on this work through a contact in the Newry and Mourne Council.   He and I both agreed this would be an interesting add on to the tourist attractions of Newry.  I know that many people of my generation and younger have never even known of the existence of this Tramway.

the Craigmore stop.
