Summary

Description
English: The Ann Boal Inn, Killough This is a traditional pub in Main Street, Killough. The publican, Malachi Curran, a prominent member of the Northern Ireland Labour Party was one of the signatories of the Good Friday Peace Agreement. The inn saw its own tragedies during the Troubles. An off-duty RUC officer, Constable George Stewart (34), known as "Sandy", was murdered in the bar in front of his fiancee, the inn's licensee, Ann Boal, by the IRA on Sept. 26, 1981. Ann died of a broken heart. When Malachi took over the running of the inn, he renamed it "The Ann Boal Inn" in her honour.
