The Northern Whig
The Northern Whig is a bar housed in a historical building in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
It is situated in the ''Cathedral Quarter'', just to the north of the city centre. At various times during its history it has been a gentleman's club, a newspaper and is currently a bar owned by Botanic Inns.
==The Northern Whig Club==
The original Northern Whig Club was formed in Belfast in 1791 by the Society of the United Irishmen. They met in various locations around the Bridge Street area in Belfast. In 1795 various members including Theobald Wolfe Tone and Henry Joy McCracken met at Cavehill to the north of Belfast, a meeting that was a pivotal step towards the 1798 Rebellion.
In 1819 construction began on the current Northern Whig building in Bridge Street, taking its name from the original club. The foundation stone was laid on St. Patrick’s Day, and the building was completed in 1821 as a hotel and gentlemen's club. In 1798 McCracken had been tried and hanged at the Belfast Assembly Rooms, across the road from the building. The Assembly Rooms building was used as a branch of the Northern Bank during the 20th century, but is currently vacant.
