J5182 : Gully grating, Bangor

Gully grating, Bangor
A grating on Ballyholme Road in Bangor. The inscription is very worn and only "Belfast Foundry 1896" is still visible. This is enough, however, to indicate that this is another example from Houston and Hamilton similar to J5868 : Houston & Hamilton grating, Greyabbey (2) - there are letters just visible beneath the iron strip running down the middle that would indicate that this is also cast in the "County Down Pattern".
This is the only example in the area - all other gratings are much more modern.
