Set behind a restored 18th Century shop front, lies a beautiful little courtyard garden, which closes out the hustle and bustle of the busy market town. There we find the print room in which the Gray family carried out their printing business and in which John Dunlap, printer of the American Declaration of Independence, learned his trade.

A fascinating collection of 19th Century presses is displayed in the print room, while an audio-visual presentation of the history of printing in the Strabane area and its impact on world affairs, will also hold your attention.
