Turfing the site of the former Andersonstown RUC Barracks
This site has been designated as the site of a new landmark building for expowest, located as it is at the intersection of the Falls and Glen Road. The building design was the subject of an RIBA competition but the result has been challenged so that work is yet to begin.

Belfast trolleybuses on Falls Road - 1968
Heading to the Casement Park terminus on service 12 with Milltown Cemetery in the background. This was part of the last remaining trolleybus route in Belfast, running across city to Whitewell and would cease operation 4 weeks after my visit. The building to the right has been replaced by a Sainsbury's superstore.
The leading trolleybus is no.197, a BUT 9641T with locally built Harkness bodywork, built in 1949.
This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761

The junction of A501 (Glen Road) and the B102 (Falls Road)
The view extends from Glen Road across the traffic island to the portal of Milltown Cemetery. The wall around the traffic island shows signs of repair after RTAs. During The Troubles the area shown in this image was overlooked by a sangar erected at the narrow end of the Andersonstown RUC station. The sangar can be seen in the following images.
