That is a share almost six times the British figure, so rural security is central here: machinery sheds, fuel tanks and livestock buildings spread across open countryside. Closer in, Armagh has four named industrial estates, several shopping centres and theatres and stadiums. Our work therefore ranges from solar CCTV towers on farmland to retail officers in The Mall Shopping Centre and stewards for match days. - Agriculture is 26.4% of local businesses - 12 construction sites mapped within 5km - Spires Retail Park and The Mall Shopping Centre nearby - Armagh GAA Athletic Grounds and Holm Park stadiums Get a Quote [View Armagh on OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=Armagh%2C%20County%20Armagh) Armagh Business Profile ## Agriculture, building and retail around Armagh After agriculture's 2,530 firms, construction is the next largest sector with 1,420, and retail follows with 725. With 12 construction sites mapped within 5km of Armagh, builders need protection for plant and materials between shifts: towers, static guards and patrols outside working hours. Officers placed through our network are SIA-licensed and BS 7858 vetted, and every patrol is booked on by GPS. Utilities run slightly above the national share, at 0.9% compared with 0.6%. Utility premises generally need guarding and remote CCTV monitoring through a monitoring centre with NSI Gold accreditation. On the farming side, rural mobile patrols on varied routes check gates and outbuildings, while solar-powered towers watch yards that have no mains supply. Retailers, meanwhile, tend to want uniformed store officers and alarm response. 9,590 Registered businesses in Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon 12 Active construction sites mapped within 5 km 14 Pubs, bars & nightclubs within 5 km ### Industrial estates, shops and venues in Armagh - **Industrial & business parks:** Station Road Industrial Estate, Hamiltonsbawn Road Industrial Estate, Edenaveys Industrial Estate, Tullygoonigan Industrial Estate, Armagh Telephone Exchange and Translink Ulsterbus - **Retail parks & shopping centres:** The Mall Shopping Centre, Armagh City Shopping Centre, Ring Road Shopping Centre and Spires Retail Park - **Hospitals:** Armagh Community Hospital and St Lukes Hospital ### Venues & Martyn's Law Venues within 5km include Market Place Theatre and Arts Centre, Armagh Omniplex and the Armagh GAA Athletic Grounds.

Security Requirements in Armagh ## Armagh's estates and centres Within 5km of Armagh sit Station Road, Hamiltonsbawn Road, Edenaveys and Tullygoonigan industrial estates, alongside the Armagh City Shopping Centre, Ring Road Shopping Centre and Spires Retail Park. Armagh Community Hospital and St Lukes Hospital serve the area, and there are 14 pubs and bars. No railway station appears nearby, so most staff and goods arrive by road, which leaves yards and car parks exposed after hours.

Without a complete twelve months, any total or trend for the streets around Armagh would be misleading, so we leave the numbers out. What matters more to an owner is the condition of their own site: how doors and gates are secured, whether lighting reaches the yard, and where machinery or stock sits overnight. A free walk-round audit, normally £250, covers those points and leaves you with a 25-point risk checklist. Local Policing ## The PSNI and private security Responsibility for policing Armagh rests with the Police Service of Northern Ireland. A private patrol or guard adds eyes on specific premises and passes incidents to them.
