What is recorded here
Ballynahinch Street in County Down carries a blue plaque marking the home of Sir Hamilton Harty, 1879-1941, a musician and composer. The small plaque turns an ordinary residential street into a place where musical imagination and domestic life overlapped. Harty lived there during the years that shaped his work, and the plaque preserves that connection for people walking past decades later.
