BWC gate, Belfast
Image: © Rossographer Taken: 29 May 2016
Large style Belfast & District Water Commissioners gate outside an old (and almost certainly disused) valve well on the Saintfield Road in Belfast. The left gatepost had no BWC inscription, the right post was completely covered by foliage. This appears to be the furthest set of BWC gates from the Silent Valley Image; from here the pipeline continued into the city along the Saintfield Road and then the Ravenhill Road - I can trace it was far as the eastern side of Ormeau Park but then it disappears from maps.
