See J2664 : Nos 28-32 Castle Street, Lisburn (3) (January 2011). Unlike its near neighbour J2664 : No 36 Castle Street, Lisburn (6) this one remains derelict and now has buddleia and rosebay willowherb growing in its slateless roof.

Castle Street, Lisburn


Dating from the very early 17th century and taking its name from Conway’s castle (of which the gate J2764 : The Castle gate, Lisburn (3) is possibly the best-preserved survivor), Castle Street runs from Seymour Street to Market Square. Once the main entrance to the town from Belfast, in more recent times it was badly affected by the Troubles and the associated security arrangements. The restoration of the Castle Gardens and, in 2010, the opening of the new Tech were major improvements. Some buildings (January 2011) are derelict but some are offered for sale with development potential.
