Mayfair Street Belfast 1911
« on: Saturday 09 July 11 17:19 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have a map of this area [Clifton] from that time , or any photos of the area that they could share with me?

By the look of things it no longer exists.

Any information is great too!

The poster is looking for a map or photos.

According to this 1910 Belfast directory Mayfair St. was off Oldpark Road.

Hi KVT
Mayfair Street was in an area of Belfasts Oldpark Road which local people called "The Bone".
There is a thread on "Belfast Forum" about this area

Thanks Jim,

The article on the Belfast Forum is a mine of information.

I didn't realise the street was part of an area with so much history.
