A late 19th century street, running from North Queen Street (behind me) to the Antrim Road (Duncairn Street at the time of building). This tree-lined section is just past Edlingham Street. Much of the lower end has been redeveloped for commercial use.

Former Macrory Memorial Presbyterian church, Belfast
The former Macrory Memorial Presbyterian church, in Duncairn Gardens, opposite Edlingham Street. It seems to date from 1896 when it replaced one in Gt George’s Street. Currently vacant and with a “to let” sign. My understanding is that an application for planning permission Z/2008/1584/F Construction of a 3-storey building comprising 12no. 2 bedroom apartments with access from both Duncairn Gardens & Hillman Street [amended scheme]” was not approved. Not listed and not on the “at risk” register.
Note added 25 November 2011 - there is an application for planning permission, listed under the streamlined procedure, as follows: “Z/2011/1280/F Macrory Memorial Presbyterian Church Duncairn Gardens Belfast BT15 2GN Change of use from church building to 2no hot food takeaways with alterations to front elevation”.
