Distance

Lane, Carrickfergus
The Belfast Road end of a lane which formerly led to and through part of the old Courtaulds factory Image (behind the wall on the left). I might be wrong but I think that it eventually led to the railway close to Mount station. The station was built to serve employees of the factory and did not have any public access.
