Beragh (Irish: Bearach (place of points/hills/standing stones)) is a village and townland in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. It is about 8 miles (13 kilometres) east of Omagh and is in Omagh District Council. The 2001 Census recorded a population of 520.
History
One of the first known references to the village was on a 1690 Plantation map of Ireland. In the 1820s this village, the property of Earl Belmore, was described as having "one long wide street of very mean houses whose tenants for the most part appear to be poor". The inhabitants mostly worked in trade and agriculture. In 1841 the population was 617, the village having 103 houses. The village had a market patent granted under the name "Lowrystown".
The Portadown, Dungannon and Omagh Junction Railway opened Beragh railway station on 2 September 1861. The Ulster Transport Authority closed the station and the PD&O line on 15 February 1965.
