Kenlis Street, Banbridge
Image: © Albert Bridge Taken: 17 Jul 2010
Kenlis Street was laid out around 1866 when it connected Newry Street to Rathfriland Street and the Rathfriland Road. The street was realigned at the western end to connect into the new roundabout Image The old bit (opposite the war memorial) was re-named “Old Kenlis Street”. This is the view outwards at Townsend Street. Once upon a time the Ormeau Bakery Image had a depot (near the dark car on the left) where it kept its breadvans for door-to-door deliveries. In those distant times it was in local competition with Inglis (“English’s”) and Preston’s. Some might remember that the breadman had a long pole which he used to pull out the drawers in the breadvans.
