Where is Bentham Street (St George's Antrim)
« on: Thursday 28 January 10 20:32 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find the whereabouts of Bentham Street (St George's Antrim), Belfast - does anyone know where it was/is? I cant find it on any new or historic maps.

Thanks

1910 directory lists "Bentham Street- Felt Street to Mabel Street" which should help narrow down the location.

Felt Street- Blythe Street to Utility Street, then Utility Street- off Donegall Road.

Added- Bentham Street shows up on modern maps-

You haven't mentioned a date but from Streetview looks like whole area has been re-developed in recent years.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
