Summary
edit
| Description |
English: The Island, Lisburn
The Island came into existence as a result of the building of the Lagan Navigation. An island was built to allow the canal to bypass the River Lagan. Initially there was a factory making vitriol for use in bleaching linen. A spinning mill was established in 1867 which continued in production until 1983. When this photograph was taken, in 1982, the site was mainly derelict. It was eventually acquired by Lisburn Council for re-development as a civic and arts centre. For the view of the re-developed site (looking in the opposite direction) see 64602. |
