Sorry for your loss. Jayus that was bleak. I had moved to London by then. Saw the deliberate declined from working in my ma & das chipper. The area was deliberately run down to ensure the infrastructure for #IFSC had no objections. How any locals remained is a testimonial to their grit, resilience & close bonds to a community. That once thrived, had full employment, where people where moving from abject poverty to building lifes for themselves, their children & each other that made life happier.

Absolutely fascinating bit of archive footage. Amazing how the line between 'real' Sheriff Street and 'staged' Belfast is so blurred. It's amazing who such a massive swathe of the city was left to moulder….at this point, and I remember this as a kid, the area had gone beyond deprived and into a sort of post-war, ghost town and was ready for the plough and the bulldozer… but of course, despite the IFSC in the 90s, then the hotels, financial institutes etc setting up, and the likes of the Josephs, Laurences Mansions etc being levelled, many of the social problems remain. The heroin problem is as bad as ever.

Lads used to always get mugged with syringes and knives to their throats. There was a heroin epidemic. Nowadays the majority of heroin addicts are in their late 30's or 40's
