Midland Terrace is what was once called Canning Street. The “Midland” comes from the LMS Railway which, until the nationalisation of railways under the Ulster Transport Authority, operated from nearby York Road station. Some of the houses date from the 1970’s and were built by a private developer in a Government-promoted attempt to encourage rejuvenation in an area affected by the troubles. The scheme was not completed in the form envisaged.
