First, the RSPBA seeks to develop knowledge on the history of the branch from its inception post second World War, through the difficult and complex period in Northern Ireland known as ‘The Troubles’, to the ‘post-conflict’ peace agreement period in the twenty first century. Second, the organisation hopes to develop an ethnographic overview of the present day living tradition of highland bagpipe performances linked or associated to the branch in
Northern Ireland. This document deals primarily with the first of these objectives. However, early into the research we realised that uncovering the dates and details of organisation formations would only provide a limited picture of those early years of the RSPBA in Northern Ireland.
