Historical Landuse

Date published: 14 November 2017

The Land Use Database held by the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) provides a record of approximately 14,000 sites that have had previous industrial land use(s). This database was originally developed in 1997 based on historic maps and records held provided by the Local Councils for the period 1834 to 1960. More recently this database was further updated using NIEA datasets such as the Industrial Heritage database, Waste Management License Database and Pollution Incidents Database.
