Armagh field mouse relaxes on own 'custom-moused' chair

A County Armagh couple have shared their unique methods of welcoming wildlife into their garden.

Ian and Paula Conroy made miniature replicas of their own outdoor furniture so passing mice could relax in their garden.

The nature-loving couple are among the Armagh residents who feature in a new four-part series following a year in the life of the Georgian city and its surroundings.

The Conroys, who lost their young son to a brain tumour in 2020, are making it their mission to share their vast garden with wildlife and members of their local community.

The Chronicles of Armagh begins on BBC One Northern Ireland at 20:00 GMT on Monday 19 February. It will also be available on the BBC iPlayer.
