==History== On 4 June 1922, Pettigo village was occupied by members of the Irish Republican Army (IRA), part of Michael Collins campaign against Northern Ireland, during the Battle of Pettigo and Belleek. The village of Belleek, from Tullyhomon, became part of the new Northern Ireland and Pettigo was retained by the Irish Free State. Soldiers from the British Army crossed Lough Erne in order to fight the IRA and the estimated casualties were three IRA men killed, six wounded and four captured, the British lost one soldier while two civilians who were killed in the fighting. There is a memorial on the Belleek Road to those who "died fighting against British forces in Pettigo 4-6-1922", while a mere few metres from it is a memorial to those "who gave their lives in the Great War 1914–1918".
