The Mountpottinger Road, Belfast
Built in the late 1870’s the Mountpottinger Road/Bothar Thulach Phoitinseir originally ran from the Albertbridge Road
Image to Bridge End
Image Road improvements mean that it now runs to the Mountpottinger Link/Lub Thulach Phoitinseir which, in turn reaches Bridge End via the Short Strand/An Trá Ghearr
Image The now demolished (and formerly well-known) Prices of Mountpottinger was (approximately) on the right of the photo. The area has been extensively redeveloped.

The Short Strand/Cluan Place interface from Mountpottinger Road
The houses whose roofs are visible in the image are in the Loyalist cul-de-sac of Cluan Place. Despite the height of the fences projectiles can be lobbed over them mainly in the form of masonry and bottles.

The Mount conference centre, Belfast (April 2017)
I don’t remember the exact dates but starting sometime towards the late 1980’s there was a major redevelopment of the area between The Mount and the Ravenhill Road. The work included the widening of the Albertbridge Road
Image, the building of the Albert Bridge Congregational Church
Image and the construction of the Woodstock Link
Image
The Mount Conference Centre dates from 1997. The entrance is from the Woodstock Link. The Mount
Image is on the left.
I have no connection with the building or the provision of facilities.
