Parliamentary boundary post, Opposite Park Royal, Lisburn Road, Belfast, County Antrim

A cast-iron administrative marker post of 1918 marking the outer extent of the jurisdiction of Belfast Corporation (as Belfast City Council was then known), and of Cromac Division and Windsor Ward electoral areas within it. Embedded in footpath along south side of Lisburn Road just west of what was once a bus turning area near King’s Hall. It is located over a stream which denoted the course of this boundary hereabouts, but which has since been culverted. It faces an identical post on the opposite side of the road (HB26/15/021). Of slightly tapered cylindrical profile, it bears the shield of Belfast Corporation’s coat of arms, below which is a plaque reading “Parliamentary/ and Municipal/ Boundary of/ Belfast/ Cromac Division/ Windsor Ward/ 1918”. Its base is now buried as the ground level has been raised almost up to the bottom of shield. Oversailing flat octagonal top with slightly smaller fluted circular cap.
