Yet, this photograph underscores the city's diverse economic landscape, highlighting the importance of cabinet making and furniture production. The factory, with its large windows and prominent signage, epitomizes the entrepreneurial spirit that defined Belfast during this era.

This photograph is an invaluable historical record of Belfast's rich past, providing a glimpse into the daily life and economic activities of its residents during a pivotal period in the city's history.
