Post Box on Fortwilliam Park
Old Post Box on Fortwilliam Park - I'm not an expert, but this looks like an Edward VII (ruled 1901-1910) example which would make it about 100 years old.

"Safeway" bus stop, Belfast
Once upon a time there was a locally-owned chain (resembling Woolworths but selling food etc) called FA Wellworth & Co. To the best of my knowledge it originated in Enniskillen in the 1950’s and remained independent until the 1990’s when it became part of a much bigger group. By 1997 the larger supermarkets were trading under the Safeway branding. Safeways was acquired by Morrisons in 2004 who sold the NI stores to Asda in 2005 – the current owner. The “Safeway” name still adorns this bus stop, at the former “Wellworths”, on the Shore Road.
