Billy Reid's Fresh Meat Market

OK so this hospital thing is dragging on a bit.  I haven't been near the darkroom for about a month and while there is light at the end of the tunnel I'm not out of the woods yet.  Enough mixing of yer metaphors, I hear you say!

Here you go, then...taken and printed around the late 70s, this shows Railway Road in Coleraine:

The big bollard things with the plants in them at the sides of the road were put there after an IRA car bomb decimated that part of town in 1973.  Six people were killed and many more injured - if you're up for it, there's more about it here but it's not a particularly easy read.  Thankfully events like this in the North East Liberties were few and far between.
