Hugh Porter (1780–1812) was an Ulster Scots dialects poet and weaver.[1] He was known as the Bard of Moneyslane, a village in County Down.[2]
Porter started writing poetry as a teenager, although he likely had little formal education.[1] In 1799, he dedicated a poem to his patron Reverend Thomas Tighe, who supported several local writers including Patrick Brontë.[1][3] Tighe was a friend of the translator Reverend Henry Boyd, and was part of the Dromore literary circle with Thomas Percy.[1][3]
In the 1800s, Porter's work was published in several newspapers under the pseudonym "A County Down Weaver" and "Tisander".[4] In 1813, Poetical Attempts (1813), a volume of his work,[1] was published "to exhilarate the evening of the author's life" with funds raised by Tighe.[3]
