Armagh (Richhill) Cottage. Rural scenes. The Ulster countryside is unmistakeably individual. The tiny farms and fiends always provide a fascination for visitors. Lush greenland for stock rearing is the general rule, but market gardening and grain crops provide a change of scene. The turf-cutter and forester are also to be seen at work and the village blacksmith still plies his trade.

National Museums NI holds over a million objects in the collection, as well as this we manage the records and associated images for each object through a working database. The national collection has been almost 200 years in the making, and we recognise that thinking about collecting and collections has evolved over this time and continues to evolve. As a result, some of our records may contain language and views that we now consider offensive and unacceptable, for example, reflecting racist attitudes. We are committed to addressing these issues, and to reviewing and updating our records accordingly. Working with researchers, communities and academic partners we are learning more about the stories behind objects, and we are committed to sharing these with our audiences. We welcome feedback.
