The women's armed territorial service stayed at these old workshops during WW2. The location is at the Killybrack Road, close with the junction with the Gortin Road and close the former Army Base at Lisanelly Camp. This was near here that the Silverbirch Hotel was started in similar buildings to these by Vincent Traynor and his family after the Second World War. Image]
