Stand, Seaview, Belfast
The Main Stand, on the northern side of Seaview
Image, seen from the Shore Road. The history of the ground is explained in this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seaview_(football_ground). Irish League attendances have been declining over the last 40+ years. Many ground fell into a state of disrepair. Grants are now available for modernisation. Some further reading is available here http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?s=1267e30bc733817223d83b72b8265830&t=1131659.

Seaview Presbyterian church, Belfast
A redbrick church, at the corner of the Shore Road and the steep Premier Drive (foreground). The following is a quotation from the Presbyterian Church website: “The church hall was built and opened on 31st October 1936 whilst the church itself was erected later and officially dedicated on 5th October 1940. Slight damage was caused during the blitz in 1941 and new halls and improvements were made during the 1950s”.

Terracing at Seaview, Belfast
Seaview (Crusaders FC) on Belfast's Shore Road is one of the old-fashioned ground, made up mainly of terracing. Like the olden days, the casuals of the teams switch at half time to terrace behind the net that their team must score in - effectively giving them a better view of their team's goals (if any). Here only a few Crues' fans (the more vocal ones) have gathered behind the Glenavon 'keeper. Predictably at half-time the terrace filled with fans of the Lurgan side.
