The Battle of the Somme - The 36th (Ulster) Division was an infantry division of the British Army, part of Lord Kitchener's New Army, formed in September 1914.

St. George’s Market – older visits along with today (aug 2023) – click here

What is St. George’s Market I’m a big fan of St. George’s Market and enjoy going there a few times a year. The atmosphere is great and I love the live music playing throughout. All the colours there are a feast for the eyes while all the smells are a treat for the nose. History Although St. George’s Market was built at the end of the 19th Century, the Friday market that is still held there each week dates back to 1604. The market has long been a major part in the social history and traditions of Belfast. During World

I love the 'hunt'.
