Berlin Street, Belfast
Like most of the Shankill this was redeveloped in the 1980s from dense terraces to more open houses as can be seen here. Berlin Street leads off the Shankill towards the Crumlin Road.

Ambleside Street, Belfast
Off Tennent Street. Whoever named the streets around here must just have returned from their holidays in the Lake District - as Keswick Street and Coniston Street (now redeveloped and renamed Coniston Close) are just around the corner.

Pernau Street, Belfast
A much redeveloped part of the Shankill. Pernau Street used be a row of 'two-up-two-down' houses running left to right where the houses are in the distance at present. It has been diverted to Riga Street.

Redeveloped in the 1980s. Looking towards Carnan Street. Riga Street once continued further to become Lower Riga Street - however a residential home now stands in the way.

Semi-detached houses, Carnan Street, Belfast
These mock Tudor semis are quite out of character with the Shankill in general - and are strikingly similar to the Frazer Homes "Malvern" and "Rossdale" developments at the Four Winds in South Belfast (perhaps not a coincidence).

"The Bru", Shankill Jobs & Benefits Centre
On Snugville Street. The term 'bru' for a Jobcentre is very much unique to Belfast - particularly the west of the city. It derives from the days when an Employment Exchange was known as a 'bureau' - 'bru' being a comical mispronunciation of the word. The term was popularised in a BBC comedy series by James Young in the 1970s ("Our Jimmie").
