The structure to the left is one of the "Peace Walls" which were erected to separate loyalist and republican areas of the city and help minimise violence between the two communities. The number of these walls has increased since the Good Friday Agreement of 1998 and now stands at 59 with a total length of 21 miles. One of the houses in this image has additional protection in the event of objects being thrown over the peace wall.
