Faded Glory

These three pairs of UK shields (Ulster Banner, St Andrew’s Saltire, Union Flag) are in Lindsay Street, south Belfast. There was also a fourth one, with the shield of the 36th Division. The were mounted in the four spaces (and in two cases, on the backing boards) used for a set of older boards, and the old title strip is still visible in the first two images: “Relief Of Londonderry” can be seen in the first image, while “Williamite cavalry charge, Aughrim” is visible in the second.

(The other two were “Jacobites fleeing at Enniskillen” and “Battle Of The Boyne”. For the four previous pieces, from left to right, see D00353, D00355, D00354, and D00356.)
