Grating, Bangor
Image: © Rossographer Taken: 2 Apr 2011
An old grating that sits right in the middle of Shandon Drive in Bangor. Although badly worn, the inscription "Union Foundry Belfast" can still just be seen. Interestingly, Shandon Drive has recently been resurfaced and almost all the manhole and grating covers were removed and replaced - this was the only one left untouched, even though it appears to be blocked and serve no useful purpose.
