Despite the name the estate is laid out on strict right-angled geometric lines – in this case a square. The Horizon Building
Image is in the background, on the Shore Road. The boarded-up block on the right is a case where appearances can be deceptive. It’s relatively new but still unlet. The agents’ website shows it as completely modern inside.

Motorways merging near Belfast
The efficiency of the landscaping (seen in

The two lanes of the M5, coming in from Rushpark, are between the grass and the crash barrier (middle). The motorway drops a lane approaching the Fortwilliam junction
Image off-slip and gains it again once past the on-slip. The lanes then continue as described in
