Below are some interesting examples of terraces in Belfast, focusing on the North and West so far, seems to quite an interesting variation of type and material, as hoped for from reading material, The Antrim road area quite distinctively uses a yellow brick for detailing not found in the rest of Belfast, definately not made here so probably scottish or welsh. The other example are more reserved two-up, two-downs but show rather intriquing brickwork. Building was obviously built on a far more conservative approach but the delicate detailing of rubbed and shaped brick and rather reserved use of architectural motifs indicate the same sense of craftmanship and awareness of materiality, which would make sense with the sheer number of brickyards in the West at that time,
possible case studies??
...and we'll be back after these words from our sponsors....
