Politician, Barrister, Ulsterman

Sir Edward Carson, 1854-1935, was born and raised in Dublin, and practiced law there for many years, but he is most famously associated with the Unionist campaign against Home Rule and the creation of “a Protestant province of Ulster” and eventually the six-county state of Northern Ireland.

This mural is by Dee Craig (Fb) in Ballyclare’s Grange Drive. It was originally painted in 2017 but was repaired in 2020.
