High Street

This is Present day High street the main street in Antrim town. Same as it was in days gone by but not as many shops and no Hotels. In the Past photograpgh you can see one of the hotels on your left the 'Lough Neagh Hotel'. Between the First nd Second World Wars the five hotels that where here in High street provided package holidays for the Lancashire mill workers but they also had a high class clientel as well staying in the hotels. They used to run tours and excursion trips from here all over the North and South of Ireland and a lot of the buses were open topped! Can you imagine what it must have been like with the weather we get.
