Title: Location of Street and Town -COMPLETED
Post by: CalumD on Saturday 06 February 10 00:19 GMT (UK)

I am looking for the name and location of a street which may be in Cushendall, Cushendun or maybe Ballycastle.

The photo which can be accessed through the link below was taken c1952.

There are some features in the background which may help with identification.

I do hope that some of the members can help.

Hello aghadowey,

Thanks for your link to the background of the photo.

I posted on the Antrim Historical Society site and recieved information from a member giving the name and location of the street: Glentaisie Dr in Ballycastle.
