Sailortown, Belfast (3)
See Image There is so little left that it is next to impossible to give any worthwhile idea of how the area looked before the demolitions. This piece of old harbour railway, in Prince’s Dock Street, and the bar and sandwich shop (background) are about all that is left. See also Image

Sailortown, Belfast (1)
Sailortown is the local name for an area of Belfast bounded by York Street, Whitla Street, the harbour and Gt George’s Street. The residents had many close connections with the sea and docks. It fell victim to demolition for the M2/M3 motorways and has almost ceased to exist. There are major (private sector) redevelopments underway but for many the destruction was symbolised by the closure of St Joseph’s (RC) parish church (built in 1878-80) in 2001, an event not without acrimony between parishioners and hierarchy. Open-air masses are held each Sunday morning. This photo of the spire surrounded by the paraphernalia of building sites sums it all up. On the “At Risk” register.
