Place & story

After the Caledon district closed

An order made on 8 November 1971 abolished Caledon’s petty sessions district and divided its townlands between Armagh and Dungannon. Lisgobban appears in the schedule of places transferred to Dungannon, alongside Benburb, Derryfubble and Lisbanlemneigh. The change took effect on 1 December that year. It concerns the organisation of the local courts; the order does not describe a courthouse standing in Lisgobban. [2]
