Built in the mid 19th century, Dover Street ran from Divis Street to the Shankill. Redevelopment, taking into consideration the effects of “The Troubles” or the “Armed Struggle” depending on your particular viewpoint, in the two areas, saw it truncated with Louden Street Industrial Estate built in between. This is today’s street as it meets the Shankill Road. As a sign of return to normality it now boasts a “KFC”.
