https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/cba160076dc77e22a078ebb083423a7c_hd.jpg Wasteland bewteen Cupar Way and Third Street, 2008 The site was used as the location of a large bonfire on the Eleventh Night. The structure was made up of wooden palettes and rubber car tyres. Photographs of the the ten men who died during the 1981 Hunger Strikes were pinned to a coffin made out of cardboard that leant against the bonfire. A 'kick-the-pope' band played marching songs as the bonfire was lit. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/b30bb461ff96d15e76ecc13c02837e38_hd.jpg View from Conway Mill, 2008 New residential developments off the Lower Falls Road viewed from the Conway Mill. The Peaceline is clearly visible behind the houses, on the other side lies a wasteland and the Argyll Business Park. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/4e80ca64a7a3436aa2c253d36618f0b6_hd.jpg Lanark Way, 2008 Wasteland beside Lanark Way betwen Caledon Street and the Shankill Road. The site was the location of a housing estate that has been cleared. Although the ground has been concreted over, traces remain, like these gate posts. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/74f37bc5aa7182af53c7f654626af3cd_hd.jpg Tesco's, Ballygomartin Road, 2008 The supermarket lies at the edge of a large area of undeveloped land owned by Invest Northern Ireland. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/aee8a7d94c8013c6a34204f03ca3ded8_hd.jpg Springfield Road, 2008 Located just off the Springfield Road this route is referred to as 'the road that goes nowhere' by community workers. It was constructed in expectation of the University of Ulster campus being extended to a nearby site. The redevelopment fell through and the road is now gated at one end and blocked with boulders at the other. Once a year the gates are opened and the boulders moved to allow the main body of a contentious Orange Parade to pass through. It provides a route through an interface, between Catholic and Protestant West Belfast. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/d4078aa6eb0eb45d19705d2917a08795_hd.jpg Crumlin Road Courthouse, 2008 Thousands of Loyalist and Republican prisoners were tried here and an underground tunnel connects the site to the Crumlin Gaol across the road. The building was closed in 1998 after over 150 years of solid use. The site was sold for £1 to a Northern Irish property developer and is now in poor repair following a fire in 2004. Planning permission has been granted to turn the site into a luxury hotel but the regeneration project has not yet started. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/6d7704148438696adcf0bc7cc2ba9c20_hd.jpg Shankill Road, 2008 Burned parquet flooring at a wasteland beside the Shankill Road, the floor is a remnant from a derelict housing estate.

A two-bedroom apartment is over £100,000 representing a good deal for young professionals wanting to live relatively near to the city centre but still out of the price range of most young local residents. There are no social housing apartments within the complex. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/24dde4e40e0c4c9bb7076d70c9bc0fc8_hd.jpg Springvale Business Park, 2008 The Springfield Road area has benefited from a major regeneration program. Historically a site of civil unrest during the conlifct, it suffered from economic and social decline from the 1970s onwards. The area is a direct interface between Catholic and Protestant West Belfast. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/648b6261fdd5fa6f410ca64eda94f371_hd.jpg Crumlin Road Courthouse, 2008 Main courtroom where thousands of Loyalist and Republican prisoners were tried during the so-called 'Troubles'. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/d6b2540b7b724daa7490a72a1a12c5a6_hd.jpg Andrews Flour Mill, Percy Street, 2008 Spilt flour at the Andrews Flour Mill at Percy Street. Percy Street is considered to by some to have been where the 'Troubles' first started. The mill has been located here since 1895 right between the Lower Falls Road and the Shankill Road. The walls of the factory grounds have become an extension of the peaceline. The mill continued to function during the worst periods of the thirty-year conflict and some of the older employees remember hearing gun shots as they went about their work. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/755b33e3aa93ea57a62f1be288cb970e_hd.jpg Back of Tesco's, Ballygomartin Road, 2008 Abandoned car park off the Ballygomartin Road next to the Tesco's site. The area lies at the edge of a large area of undeveloped land owned by Invest Northern Ireland. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/031a1c9d5da824ab9df422cc74a6babe_hd.jpg North Howard St, 2008 Police block the entrance to North Howard Street as the army use a scorpion to defuse a suspected bomb. The Argyll Business Centre is in the background. North Howard Street acts as a gateway within the Peaceline. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/bbac23dc67cd7c25b426f9157c340536_hd.jpg CTI Kitchen, 2008 Kitchen within the offices of the CTI Loyalist Community Group, many of the employees were previously linked to the UDA (Ulster Defence Association, a Loyalist paramilitary group.) Margaret Ritchie of the SDLP (the nationalist Social Democratic and Labour Party) has withdrawn government funding of £1.2million. Ritchie objects to CTI because the UDA have still not officially decommissioned. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/b01a92011be1d9bdfd6814236a7b7d34_hd.jpg Wasteland bewteen Cupar Way and Third Street, 2008 Piles of wires are left on wastelands throughout Belfast after Eleventh Night Bonfires. Whilst the outside of the bonfires are made of wooden palettes, the insides are filled with old rubber car tyres. The rubber burns away leaving behind the wires in rusting piles. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/761ad50dbbdca5d6988b1967fe4ba879_hd.jpg Houston and Williamson Funeral Home, 2008 Chair in the waiting room of funeral director's Houston and Williamson, Crumlin Road.

The business park is located at an interface between the Crumlin Road and Ardoyne and currently has no tenants since anchor tenant Dunnes Stores moved out. However, the site is the location of a very successful car boot sale on Sunday mornings which is well attended by both communities. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/a00554a7ed91d3fb01f1fab5f9221dbe_hd.jpg Warehouse at Lanark Way, 2008 Warehouse owned by Stadium Youth and Community Projects. The church group have been running cross community projects between youths from the Falls and Shankill Road for over ten years. They recently sold their church building to purchase this warehouse which is situated at the Lanark Way gate on the peaceline. The group have applied for Peace III funding to develop the building into the City Life Centre, a cross community centre for all ages. The redevelopment has been held up for two years waiting for the funding application to be processed. https://imageproxy.viewbook.com/501bd33f6d1d71aecd7283c76deb5275_hd.jpg Ballygomartin Road, 2008 Wasteland at the former Mackey's engineering plant off the Ballygomartin Road. Local residents from both communities are working together to block redevelopment plans for residential housing. It is feared this will create another problematic interface. http://henriettawilliams.com/about 2026-03-16 weekly 0.5 http://henriettawilliams.com/the-secret-security-guard-text 2023-10-09 weekly 0.5 http://henriettawilliams.com/page 2023-10-05 weekly 0.5
