Belfast, capital and largest city of Northern Ireland. Murals, Titanic'
s docks, city hall and more...
00:07 Most areas and districts of Belfast still reflect the divided nature of Northern Ireland. Many areas are still highly segregated along ethnic, political and religious lines, especially in working-class neighbourhoods. These zones -- Catholic or Republican on one side and Protestant, or Loyalist on the other -- are invariably marked by flags, graffiti and murals.
8:16 Belfast is also a major port, with commercial and industrial docks dominating the Belfast Lough shoreline, including the famous Harland and Wolff shipyard, which built the well-known RMS Titanic. The Harland and Wolff shipyard is now the location of the world's largest dry dock, where the giant cranes, Samson and Goliath stand out against Belfast's skyline.
Modern architecture includes the Waterfront Hall and the Odyssey Arena.
12:41 The City Hall was finished in 1906 and was built to reflect Belfast's city status, granted by Queen Victoria in 1888. The Edwardian architectural style of Belfast City Hall influenced the Victoria Memorial in Calcutta, India, and Durban City Hall in South Africa. The dome is 173 ft (53 m) high and figures above the door state Hibernia encouraging and promoting the Commerce and Arts of the City.
15:49 One of the most popular parks is Botanic Gardens in the Queen's Quarter. Built in the 1830s and designed by Sir Charles Lanyon, Botanic Gardens Palm House is one of the earliest examples of a curvilinear and cast iron glasshouse.

Belfast is Northern Ireland’s capital. It was the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, which famously struck an iceberg and sunk in 1912. This legacy is recalled in the renovated dockyards' Titanic Quarter, which includes the Titanic Belfast, an aluminium-clad museum reminiscent of a ship’s hull, as well as shipbuilder Harland & Wolff’s Drawing Offices and the Titanic Slipways, which now host open-air concerts.
Belfast is the capital and largest city of Northern Ireland, the second largest on the island of Ireland, and the heart of the tenth largest Primary Urban Area in the United Kingdom. Belfast was a centre of the Irish linen, tobacco-processing, rope-making and shipbuilding industries: in the early 20th century, Harland and Wolff, which built the RMS Titanic, was the world's biggest and most productive shipyard. Belfast played a key role in the Industrial Revolution, and was a global industrial centre until the latter half of the 20th century. It has sustained a major aerospace and missiles industry since the mid 1930s. Industrialisation and the inward migration it brought made Belfast Ireland's biggest city at the beginning of the 20th century.
Today, Belfast remains a centre for industry, as well as the arts, higher education, business, and law, and is the economic engine of Northern Ireland. The city suffered greatly during the Troubles, but latterly has undergone a sustained period of calm, free from the intense political violence of former years, and substantial economic and commercial growth. Additionally, Belfast city centre has undergone considerable expansion and regeneration in recent years, notably around Victoria Square.
Belfast is served by two airports: George Best Belfast City Airport in the city, and Belfast International Airport 15 miles (24 km) west of the city. Belfast is a major port, with commercial and industrial docks dominating the Belfast Lough shoreline, including the Harland and Wolff shipyard, and is listed by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network (GaWC) as a global city.

REDEMPTORIST MISSIONS PART3
A look at the work of the Redemptorist Order of the Catholic Church. The film emphasises both the negative and positive aspects of the Redemptorists on Irish life. It begins with the annual Clonard Novena in Belfast and traces the history and origins of the Redemptorism in Ireland both North and South. The order was founded by St. Alphonsus Ligouri in Italy in 1732 and only arrived in Ireland from Europe one hundred years later preaching the Four Great Truths of Death, Truth, Heaven and Hell, using powerfully frightening rhetoric to in its campaign against sin and transgression, The film asserts that the Redemptorist Order exerted a powerful hold on Irish people into the 20th Century - becoming a central aspect of Catholic life into the 1960s. The film shows how the order founded confraternities around the island the Limerick Confraternity being one of the largest in Europe. These were run with militaristic precision, and exerted a significant power and influence on church and state a power that the documentary suggests was used for both good and evil over the poor and abandoned of the country. The film goes on to explore the role of the Austrian priest Joseph Prost who wrote about class divisions between the clergy and the laity since the Great Famine and lead the order to operate upon principles of social equality. The Redemptorists encouraged the use of the Irish language in their rural work a factor that lead to disputes within the Catholic hierarchy. Opposing the practice of church collections, they set about on missions which attempted to identify the social needs of ordinary people, setting up credit unions, a factor that lead to the alleged pogroms of Jewish moneylenders in Limerick in 1904. The film explores the divisions between the Redemptorists whose work with the poor lead to their discreet support of Republican movements in the struggle for independence against Britain - and the larger Catholic Church, which believed that the conflict should be addressed through purely democratic means. In the first years of the Free State, the Redemptorists assumed a stance against the drinking and manufacture of alcohol. In 1931, a young Redemptorist from Árainn, Stiofan Ó Conghaile, attempted to end the manufacture of poteen in Connemara. The film goes on to describe the Redemptorists battle against immoral sexuality and the negative influence this on young men in rural communities. The last section of the programme deals with the influence of the Redemptorists on the Northern Irish conflict, and outlines how mainly through the Redemptorist Clonard Monastery in Belfast the order brought itself directly to the concerns of ordinary people once again, this time in ministering to the besieged Catholic Nationalist community who received little or no support from the Catholic Church. This lead to the prominent role of Redemptorist Fr. Alex Reid in bringing together both sides of the Northern Ireland communities for the Northern Ireland Peace Process. The documentary makes extensive use of archive footage.

Eyewitness - The Burning of Bombay Street
In August 1969 over 1500 Catholic families in Belfast were forced to flee their homes in fear as rampaging mobs of Protestants aided and abetted by the Stormont militia the B'Specials attacked Catholic areas across the City. Over 400 Catholic homes and businesses were destroyed and 3 young Catholic's Patrick Rooney, Hugh McCabe and Gerald McAuley were shot dead and dozens more wounded. This video produced by the Clonard Residents Association outlines in detail emotional first hand accounts taken at the time of the burning of Bombay Street and the heroic stand of young Catholic men and women in the defence of their community.

Jesmond is a residential suburb and is split into two electoral wards just north of the centre of Newcastle upon Tyne, England. The population is about 12,000. Historically part of Northumberland, it is adjacent to the East side of the Town Moor, providing pedestrian and cycle paths to Spital Tongues and the city's two universities. It is widely considered to be the most affluent suburb of Newcastle.

History
According to local tradition, some time shortly after the Norman conquest there occurred in the valley of the Ouse an apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It seems reasonable to suppose that the Virgin was beheld with the infant Christ, because up until that time Jesmond had been known as Gese Muth the mouth of the Ouse while afterwards the name was popularly interpreted as the hill of Jesus, or Jesus Mound. The ruins of St Mary’s Chapel, first recorded in 1272, are in Jesmond Dene[1] on the west side of the valley.
A trace of the processions to the shrine which occurred during the Middle Ages is found in the name of that section of the former Great North Road running north of the Tyne called Pilgrim Street. During a period in which the shrine was in need of repair it was endowed with indulgences by a rescript or edict of Pope Martin V on certain feasts of the liturgical year. A spring known as St Mary’s Well of uncertain date may also be found near to the chapel. It has the word Gratia inscribed upon the stone above it. The greater part of the history of the shrine, its origins and the miracles which were said to have occurred there, were lost in the 16th century when the chapel was suppressed in the Reformation and fell into ruin. The ruin and its grounds later passed through various owners (one of whom tried to turn the well into a bathing pool). It was acquired by Lord Armstrong in the 19th century and given by him to the City of Newcastle. Mass is now offered there on occasion by the local Roman Catholic priest and the Roman Catholic Bishop of Hexham and Newcastle. Flowers along with letters and candles are often left in the ruins by pilgrims and others. A booklet outlining the surviving history of the chapel may be obtained from the Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Name on North Jesmond Avenue.

Areas of Jesmond
St George's Terrace, in Jesmond's commercial area
The area is notable for Jesmond Parish Church, Holy Trinity Church, Jesmond Dene woodland and the Royal Grammar School. The area's principal commercial area forms around Osborne Road, Acorn Road and St George's Terrace, the former being dominated by hotels and bars, and the latter by shops and cafes.
Newcastle City Council has designated [3] three conservation areas within Jesmond; Brandling Village, South Jesmond and Jesmond Dene.
The Mansion House was owned by a wealthy industrialist Arthur Sutherland, 1st Baronet, and is one of the most impressive residential properties in Jesmond. Built in 1887, the property was donated to the city by Sutherland in 1953 and is now the official residence of the Lord Mayor and can be used for private events.[4] The house, situated in the centre of Jesmond previously sat in 5 acres (20,000 m2) of land. One acre of the land including previous stables were sold as a private property, now owned by relatives of Arthur Sutherland.
Along with Leeds and Belfast, Newcastle is experiencing studentification. Jesmond is a popular residential area for students attending Newcastle University and Northumbria University. Osborne Road in Jesmond has a strong student population with a selection of student bars, restaurants and housing.[6]
Newcastle Cricket Club plays its home games at Osborne Avenue, which is also a home venue for Northumberland County Cricket Club. The cricket club is currently on a 50-year lease to Newcastle Royal Grammar School. The Jesmond Lawn Tennis club is also popular for socialising.
Jesmond is one of the 26 areas in England to have a real tennis club which is used to hold events.
