Home Service Military Heritage Society

The Home Service Military Heritage Society was formed to preserve the heritage of The Ulster Defence Regiment and the Royal Irish Regiment Home Service Battalions and to maintain and promote an awareness of the contribution and sacrifice of our servicemen and servicewomen in pursuit of peace in Northern Ireland.
Our story is the history of the largest infantry regiment in the British Army.

They have two current projects, 1st the Oral History, 2nd the Story of the Fallen Soldier. The objective of both these projects is to tell the story of service in the Regiment through the words of our ex-service personnel and their families.

Palace Barracks Memorial Garden

A quiet corner of a Holywood Army base in Belfast has become a poignant place of pilgrimage for the bereaved families of the security force personnel killed in the Troubles and other conflicts around the world... The immaculately kept one-and-half-acre memorial garden pays tribute to its fallen.

The foundations for the one-and-half-acre site of the memorial garden in Palace Barracks were laid in 1994. The memorial stones themselves are all made from South Africa granite. The garden and this website is maintained on a voluntary basic. The custodian and webmaster are both former soldiers.
