Acton, County Armagh

Acton is a hamlet and townland of 22 acres in County Armagh, Northern Ireland, about a half mile north of Poyntzpass. It is situated in the civil parish of Ballymore and the historic barony of Orior Lower〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thecore.com/seanruad/ )〕 and within the Armagh City and District Council area. It had a population of 72 people (28 households) in the 2011 Census.
== History ==
The village was founded in the 17th century, during the Plantation of Ulster, by Sir Toby Poyntz. He was the son of Lieutenant Charles Poyntz, who, for his military services, obtained a grant of land that had been confiscated from the O'Hanlons by the English. The Irish called the area ''An Chora Uachtarach'', meaning "the upper weir".〔(Place-Names NI )〕 There he built a bawn square, a house of brick and lime for himself, and 24 cottages for so many English settlers. The Poyntz family were anciently feudal barons of Curry Mallet in Somerset, England, later of Iron Acton in Gloucestershire, after which Acton, County Armagh, was named.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.placenamesni.org/resultdetails.php?entry=11791 )〕 By 1837 it contained about 50 houses "indifferently built".
