Ulster Covenant Drum

With the Centenary of the signing of the Ulster Covenant less than a month away, I came across this drum in Carrowdore Co. Down - owned by Mr. Magee.

The drum marks / commemorates the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Ulster Covenant in 1962. I have not seen this drum out playing.... ever, nevertheless it is always great to see that the drum is still in excellent condition.

It is intended that the drum will be on display at the much anticipated Ulster Covenant Exhibition, that will be on public view in September at the Town Hall Newtownards, then throughout a number of venues throughout the Ards Peninsula in the Autumn - List of venues to follow.
