Two at either end of the rubric houses in Larne St, Ballymena: UDA emblem, signed “Pigeon”; UYM emblem, unsigned (seen previously in 2007).

Behind them in Alfred Street Place, a UDA board is revealed. It’s not known what the board on top of the UDA/UFF mural below was.

Ballymacash Bonfire

Here is the Ballymacash, Lisburn, bonfire for 2010, with “IRA” lettering and a crown of tyres. When this site was developed (in 2012), the bonfire site would later move slightly north, across Rathvarna Drive. The “No Taigs” graffiti is on Prince William Road, along the western edge of the estate.
