The UAHS exists to promote the appreciation and enjoyment of good architecture of all periods - from the prehistoric to the contemporary - in the nine counties of Ulster. It seeks to encourage the preservation and restoration of buildings of merit or importance; and to increase public awareness of the beauty, history and character of local neighbourhoods.
Despite the Society's success, there are many continuing pressures ranged against the preservation of our heritage of fine buildings, unique vernacular buildings and local skills.
The Society asks you to help in influencing public opinion to ensure that the best conservation practices and legislation are implemented to protect the vulnerable heritage of good buildings in the cities, towns, village and countryside of the province.
As a member you will have the opportunity of attending and paricipating in a wide and varied programme of events throughout the year. Members of the UAHS enjoy a discount of 25% on purchase of any of our publications, and the privilege of access to many privately owned buildings not normally open to members of the public.
The UAHS organises approximately ten events each year. These range from lectures at Queen's Festival to visits to historic towns and villages, or they may relate to the subject of our latest publication.
Membership is £20 per annum (joint annual membership £30), and Corporate Membership £100 per annum. Students aged under 25, £10. If you can pay by Covenant or Direct Debit it will reduce the Society's expenses and give us greater benefit from your membership.
