Peace Wall /Peace Lines
The peace lines or peace walls are/were a series of separation barriers erected to separate nationalist and loyalist neighbourhoods during the Northern Ireland Troubles Link
in the late twentieth century. The peace lines were originally built as temporary structures meant to last only six months, but due to their effective nature they became wider, longer and more permanent; ranging in length from a few hundred yards to over three miles. They may be made of iron, brick, and/or steel and are up to 25 feet high.
