Background

History

The present name of Orritor (the anglicised form of Araghter) came from Manor Orritor, the third manor built in County Tyrone by the first Earl of Castlestewart on land he purchased in the area in 1782. The Manor also went by the aliases of Orator, Auraghter, and Manor Annesley. Orritor is also one of the circuits in Cookstown 100 motorcycle races.
