Fivemiletown

Fivemiletown Branch Club was first formed in the 1946 and in succeeding few years numbers grew to over 100 men. A new banner was purchased by the Club in 1961. On the front of the banner shows St. Columb’s Cathedral and the other side depicts the Mountjoy, Breaking The Boom. Unfortunately, despite a prosperous start the Club went into decline and went off the road in 1965. During the years that the Club wasn’t working, Mr R. Early of Fivemiletown stored the banner in his premises; it was handed back to the newly formed Club.
