Council offices, Banbridge
Image: © Albert Bridge Taken: 12 Jul 1980
The new neo-Georgian Council offices under construction in 1980. They were built on the site of the old market yard off Railway Street. The red-brick wall marks the course of the Castlewellan (left) – Banbridge section of the old GNR(I) line to Knockmore Jct (closed 1955). The line crossed the Downshire Road (foreground but at a site out of photo to the right) by a low overbridge. After the line closed the bridge was demolished allowing the road to be opened to through traffic.
