This shop is in the Coalisland Enterprise Centre on the Dungannon road. Turf has been excavated from some of Ireland's oldest boglands and processed to create a unique range of turf ornaments including clocks, Celtic crosses picture frames, jewellery and other souvenirs. At the back of the shop is the Bog Museum, where you can step back in time, and see the many exhibits of old artefacts which reveal much about the rich and varied history of Ireland before and after the ice age.
