Circular Road, Belfast - (C.S. Lewis)Little Lea was the Lewis family home from 1905 until 1930.

He claimed that someone could do more with a castle in a story than with any cardboard castle that ever stood on a nursery table. Few have proved him wrong. The house is now a private residence.

Albert ClockUntil a recent renovation corrected its list, the Albert Memorial Clock was Belfast’s answer to Pisa’s leaning tower! Erected in 1865 in Gothic style to commemorate Queen Victoria’s consort, Prince Albert, it was tall enough at 113ft, to offer an excellent vantage point for at least one enterprising sightseer to get a birds-eye view of Titanic’s launch.
