The Antrim Road and Napoleon's Nose
The Antrim Road is a major arterial route and area of housing and commerce that runs from inner city north Belfast to Dunadry. It forms part of the A6 road, a traffic route which links Belfast to Derry.
The hill in the background is Cave Hill (sometimes written as Cavehill), a basaltic hill which overlooks the city of Belfast. The hill is also referred to locally as Napoleon's Nose, as when seen in silhouette the summit is said to resemble a gigantic profile of the emperor Napoleon staring upwards (http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/life/weekend/napoleon-nose-a-thing-or-two-about-cave-hill-28506267.html Belfast Telegraph). It is also sometimes said that Cave Hill was inspiration for Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels. Swift imagined that the Cave Hill resembled the shape of a sleeping giant safeguarding the city.
