Phoenix fountain, rose garden, Coleraine
In contrast to its nearby cousin, the Phoenix fountain, in the rose garden section of Anderson Park, off the Millburn Road was erected in 2002. There is much symbolism surrounding it but essentially it is supposed to represent peace in NI. The columns are shaped in the manner of the Giant’s Causeway.

The "Kingsdale H", Coleraine
Belfast had two “sludge” boats to carry waste, from the sewage works, to the dumping grounds – the “Divis II” Image and the “St Stephen” Image Coleraine required one which operated (1981-89) part-time. The “Kingsdale H” had been built as a bunkering tanker (for an explanation see Image). This part of Coleraine harbour was subsequently rebuilt. Her port of registry was Hull.

Disused jetty, Coleraine
Once upon a time Chemstrand (later Monsanto (background in Image)) had a factory in Coleraine making man-made fibres. This jetty, on the western side of the Bann, was used to import raw materials. The jetty remains but the factory is long gone.
A visitor to the site has suggested that the jetty was too far from the Monsanto factory and was more likely to have been used by Pickerings.
My caption was based on published material and information supplied by the River Bann pilot. You may make your own decision.
