Location is in an area where the Troubles were most prevalent. In an effort to restore peace to this area, a twenty foot high barrier was erected along Cupar Way between the Falls Road Nationalist / Republican (Catholic) area south of the barrier and the Shankill Road Unionist / Loyalist (Protestant) area north of the barrier. Cupar Way is located along, and north of, the barrier within the Shankill Area.
