  • Recreation Guide
    RECREATION GUIDE GO EXPLORE Permit No. 70217 Based upon the Ordnance Survey of Northern Ireland Map with the permission of the controller of her Majesty’s Stationery Office © Crown Copyright 2007 A STRIKING VISUAL BOUNDARY The Belfast Hills make up the summits of the west and north of Belfast city. They form a striking visual boundary that sets them apart from the urban populace living in the valley below. The closeness to such a large population means the hills are becoming increasingly popular among people eager to access them for recreational activities. The public sites that are found across the hills certainly offer fantastic opportunities for organised and informal recreation. The Belfast Hills Partnership was formed in 2004 by a wide range of interest groups seeking to encourage better management of the hills in the face of illegal waste, degradation of landscape and unmanaged access. Our role in recreation is to work with our partners to improve facilities and promote sustainable use of the hills - sensitive to traditional ways of farming and land management in what is a truly outstanding environment. Over the coming years we will work in partnership with those who farm, manage or enjoy the hills to develop recreation in ways which will sustain all of these uses. 4 Belfast Hills • Introduction ACTIVITIES Walking 6 Cycling 10 Running 12 Geocaching 14 Orienteering 16 Other Activities 18 Access Code 20 Maps 21 Belfast Hills • Introduction 5 With well over half a million hikes taken every year, walking is the number one recreational activity in the Belfast Hills. A wide range of paths and routes are available - from a virtually flat 400 metres path at Carnmoney Hill pond, to the Divis Boundary route stretching almost seven miles (11km) across blanket bog and upland heath with elevations of 263m to 377m high.

  • Appropriating Architecture: Violence, Surveillance and Anxiety in Belfast's Divis Flats Adam Page School of Hist
    Title Page: Appropriating Architecture: Violence, Surveillance and Anxiety in Belfast’s Divis Flats Adam Page School of History and Heritage College of Arts University of Lincoln Brayford Pool Lincoln Lincolnshire LN6 7TSUK [email protected] 0044 (0)1522 835357 1 Biography: Page is a Lecturer in History at the University of Lincoln. He completed his PhD, which analyzed the transformation of cities into targets from interwar to Cold War, at the University of Sheffield in 2014. Before taking up the position at Lincoln, he was a fellow at the MECS Institute for Advanced Study, Leuphana Universität Lüneburg, He has published on air war and cities in Urban History and Contemporary European History. He is currently completing a book based on his PhD research, while developing a new project on disputed urban transformations in postwar UK cities. Abstract: In Belfast in the 1970s and 1980s, a modernist housing scheme became subject to multiple contested appropriations. Built between 1966 and 1972, the Divis Flats became a flashpoint in the violence of the Troubles, and a notorious space of danger, poverty, and decay. The structural and social failings of so many postwar system-built housing schemes were reiterated in Divis, as the rapid material decline of the complex echoed the descent into war in Belfast and Northern Ireland. Competing military and paramilitary strategies of violence refigured the topography of the flats, rendering the balcony walkways, narrow stairs, and lift shafts into an architecture of urban war. The residents viewed the complex as a concrete prison. They campaigned for the complete demolition of the flats, with protests which included attacking the architecture of the flats itself.

  • Brass Bands of Ireland
    Brass Bands of Ireland St Patrick’s Brass Band, Waterford a historical directory Gavin Holman 1st edition, January 2019 Introduction Of the many brass bands that have flourished in Ireland over the last 200 years very few have documented records covering their history. This directory is an attempt to collect together information about such bands and make it available to all. Over 1,370 bands are recorded here (93 currently active), with some 356 additional cross references for alternative or previous names. This volume is an extracted subset of my earlier “Brass Bands of the British Isles – a Historical Directory” (2018). Where "active" dates are given these indicate documented appearances - the bands may well have existed beyond those dates quoted. Bands which folded for more than 1 year (apart from during WW1 or WW2) with a successor band being later formed are regarded as "extinct". “Still active” indicates that there is evidence for continuous activity for that band in the previous years up to that date. Minor name variations, e.g. X Brass Band, X Silver Band, X Silver Prize Band, are generally not referenced, unless it is clear that they were separate entities. Various bands have changed their names several times over the years, making tracking them down more difficult. Where there is more than one instance of a specific brass band’s name, this is indicated by a number suffix – e.g. (1), (2) to indicate the order of appearance of the bands. Ballyclare Brass Band currently holds the record for Irish bands with (3). If the location is not inherent or obvious from the band's name, then the particular village or town is indicated, otherwise only the relevant county.
