EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of everyday life in Belfast, Northern Ireland during the 1960s. The scene unfolds on a quiet residential street, where children are seen playing and laughing around a lamppost. The lamppost, with its distinctive orange glow, casts an ethereal light over the terraced houses and pavement, creating a sense of warmth and nostalgia. The children, dressed in clothes typical of the era, are seen swinging from ropes attached to the lamppost, their faces full of joy and excitement. In the background, adults are seen walking along the street, deep in conversation or lost in thought. The houses, with their neatly tended gardens and washing hanging out to dry, give a sense of order and stability. This photograph, taken in 1969, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the simple pleasures of childhood and the close-knit community spirit that once thrived in Belfast's streets.
