Entrance gates to Clifton House One of Belfast’s most historic buildings, Clifton House was completed in 1774 by the Belfast Charitable Society as a base for their work with the poor and needy. It is usually open for tours during the European Heritage Open Days in September each year and is well worth a visit. http://www.cliftonbelfast.org.uk/home.htm

Now derelict, the Crumlin Road Courthouse was designed by the architect Charles Lanyon and completed in 1850. It is situated across the road from the Crumlin Road Gaol and the two are linked by an underground passage. Until closure in 1998 it was the scene of many high profile terrorist trials; Belfast Crown Court has now moved to Oxford Street. The building is currently awaiting redevelopment, with rumours that it is to be turned into a 5-star hotel.

The former meeting house, in Frederick Street, was built in 1840. It is now the office of a charity. The Society of Friends still meets to the side and rear of the building.
