"Burning Bush" plaque, Omagh

A Presbyterian symbol showing the bush that was enveloped by fire but never burnt. The date refers to the year the extension was added to the church hall H4472 : Church buildings, John Street, Omagh. The motto of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland, (Ardens Sed Virens) "burning but flourishing") is different from that used in Scotland (nec tamen consumebatur - "and yet it was not consumed".
