Berwick Road, Ardoyne, Belfast
Looking towards Alliance Avenue and the Peace Wall - in the 1960s, this was a mixed area (Protestants and Roman Catholics). In the times since a clear divide has been formed between Alliance Avenue and Glenbryn Park.

Bilingual signage, Berwick Road, Ardoyne
This is now an exclusively Roman Catholic area (not always so) - hence the use of for Irish street signs. I make no apologies for saying I am mystified as to why ratepayers' money goes into these - both for Irish and Ulster Scots. They seem to act more as 'territorial markers' than for Irish speakers.

Roadblock, Velsheda Park, Ardoyne
I believe these were used to separate streets as an attempt to stop joyriders coming down the hill - plaguing residents. If anyone knows otherwise - I'd like to hear.

Velsheda Court, Ardoyne, Belfast
This was once all Velsheda Park - it has since been cut in two. An overwhelmingly Roman Catholic area - although in the 60s - it actually had a Protestant majority. Belfast really is 'no mean city'.

Alliance Avenue, Ardoyne, Belfast
Runs parallel to the 'Peace Wall'. This is only just on the Roman Catholic side.
