EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Ravenhill Road at Deramore Tower in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Dating back to the early 1900s, this photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, showcasing the intersection of Ravenhill Road and Deramore Avenue. The residential street is lined with Victorian and Edwardian houses, their red brick facades adorned with intricate details and ornate chimneys. At the heart of the scene, a horse-drawn tram makes its way along Ravenhill Road, adding a touch of bustling activity to the tranquil setting. The tram, pulled by two powerful horses, is a testament to the transportation methods of the era, providing an essential service for the community. Deramore Tower, a prominent landmark in the background, stands tall and proud, its Gothic Revival architecture a stark contrast to the more modest homes below. The tower, built in the late 1800s, served as a water tower and pumping station for the Belfast Waterworks, supplying clean water to the growing city. This photograph offers a unique perspective of Belfast's rich history, providing a glimpse into the daily life of its residents during a time of significant change. The combination of the residential street, the horse-drawn tram, and the iconic Deramore Tower makes for a captivating and evocative image that transports us back to a bygone era.
