The Ballinderry Road, Lisburn (old alignment)
Image: © Albert Bridge Taken: 14 Apr 2013
One of the side effects of the building of the Belfast – Dublin railway was the (slight) realignment of the Ballinderry Road and its replacement by the bridge Image on the right. The original alignment can be seen between the two fence posts on the left. The railway opened here in 1841. The old alignment survived intact until relatively recently but there are now commercial premises at the far end. This view is from the south eastern side, near Ballycreen Drive.
