Fintona
Fintona ()〔http://www.ninis.nisra.gov.uk/mapxtreme_towns/PopChangesFacts/Fintona.pdf〕 is a village and townland in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. Its 2013 population is calculated at 1,423.
==History==
The local area has been known to have had human activity for around 4000 years; there are many burial places, standing stones, stone circles and graves in the area around Fintona. The current village is developed from an Uí Néill fortress built in 1431 and is one of Tyrone's oldest settlements. Some time after the Plantation of Ulster, by 1668 the dominant landowners in the area was the Eccles Family and their Manor House, which was located in what is nowadays Fintona Golf Club and Ecclesville Park on the Ecclesville Demense, was built in 1703.〔(Fintona Town Centre Action Plan, April 2010, Omagh District Council )〕
As in many other parts of Ireland during the 19th Century, the expansion of the railway network saw the village connected with the rest of the country. There was two stations, Fintona (open 5 June 1853) and Fintona Junction (open 1 May 1856). Connecting the two stations was a horse-drawn tram which took passengers from the village to Fintona Junction railway station which was a stop on the Londonderry and Enniskillen Railway which itself was part of the Great Northern Railway. Both stations closed on 1 October 1957.〔(Fintona Horse Tramway )〕
