The Enterprise of Ulster was a programme launched in the 1570s where Queen Elizabeth I tried to get English entrepreneurs settled in areas of Ireland troubled by the activities of Ulster.[1] Under this programme Nicholas Malby, Thomas Chatterton and Sir Thomas Smith were granted large areas of Eastern Ulster and a larger area in Clandeboye, a grant of all of County Antrim except for the Route and the Glens, was granted to the Earl of Essex in 1571.[2] It is believed that Malby never followed up regarding his grant, though he did serve in the military.[3] This was an attempt by the crown to counter resistance in Ulster.[4] This programme was, by all accounts, unsuccessful.[5]
