Tower Street, Belfast
A late19th century street off the Newtownards Road (background). Much of the eastern side was used for the new Rupert Stanley College of Further Education
Image which replaced the one in Templemore Avenue
Image Part of the western side remains as built. The part nearest the camera was (to the best of my knowledge) destroyed by the Luftwaffe in WWII. The replacement houses are in a similar style to those in nearby Belvoir Street
