There have been a lot of written tributes to the Fleadh in Belfast this week, trying to capture what it was like, what it means, and what happens next. This one, from @LaverysBelfast, sums it all up for us 👇

One small bit of money well spent on Belfast’s public realm has been regenerating the historic entries. They’ve come into their own during the Fleadh as a way to connect the city centre & create a sense of discovery.

Difficult to overstate the transformational effect the Fleadh Cheoil is already having on Belfast: 🔸️Streets for people, not cars 🔸️Main mode of accesa active & public transport (inc free shuttles) 🔸️Vacant buildings & spaces now exciting venues. Inspiration Belfast!

A pre planning app consultation has started for the move of Balmoral golf club from the Lisburn Rd in Belfast to a site at Drumbo in the Lagan Valley. It would allow the club’s partner, Merrion Property, to develop a the 75 acre site for housing. I reckon a minimum of 750 units.

Belfast’s proposed new elevated ring road as seen in the Belfast Telegraph #OnThisDay in 1963. Some elements of it were later incorporated into the Westlink, but the plan to link it up at the Gasworks never came to fruition #ConnectWithHeritage
