The Old Belfast Road, Bangor
Running from Springhill to Clandeboye, the Old Belfast Road has been bypassed by the Belfast Road dual carriageway since the early/mid-1970’s. Now mainly a local road serving the immediate area. The view is towards Springhill from near the Clandeboye end. There are a few fields (left), on the northern side, remaining undeveloped in what is otherwise mainly suburban housing.

Stream off the Old Belfast Road, Bangor [1]
Seen here just off the Old Belfast Road, a little stream that originates on the Clandeboye Estate and runs through Bangor West before meeting Belfast Lough at Carnalea. I don't know its name.

Bench Mark, Bangor
Cut bench mark on the left gatepost at the entrance to the Clandeboye Estate off the Belfast Road on the western edge of Bangor.
Interestingly, I can find no records for this mark, nor is it mentioned on any OSNI map I can find. Just behind this post is the former Clandeboye Post Office which is supposed to have a flush bracket bench mark, numbered OSBM 3469, on it (the building is apparently now a private house so I didn't look too hard or take a picture but again I can find no trace of this mark on any OSNI map).

The Belfast road near the Clandeboye estate
There seems to be an unusually large number of lights here on the Bangor – Belfast road near the entrance to the Clandeboye estate. This is the view towards Belfast. The tree and the road to Dundonald on the left are in another square. This is the start of the remaining farmland on the road.
