Ulster and Ireland captain Rory Best became the second person to receive the Freedom of Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon on Saturday during a ceremony at the Palace in Armagh.
He is pictured holding the ‘freedom scroll’ with the mayor, councillor Julie Flaherty as other councillors look on.
Rory said: “To receive the freedom of the borough is such a great honour, particularly as it comes from the area where I grew up, where I learned my rugby and where I live.”
