As mentioned before i owe my old friend Stewart McClean a debt of
gratitude for this pic taken by my Grandfather in 1912.
Its of the 36th. Division Ulster Volunteer Force parading on the Crawfordsburn Road.
Note that the field in the top right was called "Peggies Field" and was
great for toboggans,. Top Left is the Old Webbs factory and behind that Shorts. Very
bottom right was the entrance to the long driveway leading to "Stewarts House" a
mansion before its demise and replacement by Londonderry Primary School.
Another by my Grandfather, this time the Division is marching along
Talbot Street in 1912 on their way to Camp at Clandeboye.
Another pic from Stewart, this time the Division is arriving at Camp at
Clandeboye.
This recently appeared on e.bay and i missed it
Its a WW1 soldier in the uniform of the Royal Irish Rifles,. notice the chair and curtains
as in Mollis pic above...
The reverse had the same address as Mollis pic also.
