The Shankill And The Titanic

These are two painted metal-worked pieces bolted to the “peace” line on Cupar Way, celebrating “Shankill Ingenuity” and “Identity, Heritage”, while commemorating the lives lost on Titanic.

“1140” p.m. local time, April 14th, 1912, was when the ship hit an iceberg and began sinking. At about 2:20 a.m., in the early hours of the 15th, it went under.
