This classical building began life in 1834 as the Charlemount National School. In 1856 it was transferred by Lord Charlemount to the Armagh Natural History and Philosophical Society as their meeting room. Over the years extensions were added to the back of the original building, which housed an art school. In 1931 the property was acquired by Armagh County Council and has since then housed the Armagh County Museum and Library Headquarters.
