Background

History

Silverbridge, along with the rest of South Armagh, would have been transferred to the Irish Free State had the recommendations of the Irish Boundary Commission been enacted in 1925. On 19 December 1975, during The Troubles, an Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) attack on Donnelly's Bar & Filling Station resulted in the deaths of Trevor Bracknell, Patrick Donnelly, and Michael Donnelly.
