Green-bordered speed limit sign, Belfast (February 2015)
A green-bordered 20 mph speed limit sign at the Knock Road end of Cherryvalley Image My layman’s understanding is that the limit is advisory, as a traffic-calming/safety measure (used here with road humps) without a statutory basis. On the other hand . . . I can’t help thinking that, in the event of an accident, the insurance companies and police would be obliged to take failure to observe into account when assessing liability.

Cherryvalley sign, Belfast
The sign, with the “Y” missing at the Knock Road end of Cherryvalley. For those not too familiar with the area “Cherryvalley” exists. “Cheervelley” was a product of James Young’s Image imagination (and Billy Simpson’s too).

Former Knock station, Belfast (2008-1)
See Image Knock was the next station after Neill’s Hill. The down platform still survives (on the eastern side of the Knock Road which the line crossed by a level crossing) although well covered by vegetation. The view is towards Comber. The path on the right is the Comber Greenway Image built on what was a double-track railway. See Image for a view of the platform in May 2013.
