ANTRIM ROAD 367
This is the Antrim Road in Crumlin caught on camera back in 1911. It is very unusual to see a road completely clear of cars - but in the foreground you can certainly see evidence that horses had travelled that way! To the right you can see a line of immaculately trimmed thatched cottages and at the top of the street you may be able to just make out a pub. This image was actually used on postcards in the early part of the 20th century and indeed this photo was taken from a postcard sent on June 6, 1912. The recipient was a Master J.Walker, who lived in Fintona. The message read: 'Come along for a ride on the hobby horses, Jack. Hurry back or you will miss all the fun. Did you ever see this view before? Best wishes, Ena'.
