Roughfort Village, Belfast: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph offers a rare and intriguing view of Roughfort Village in Belfast, Northern Ireland, circa early 1900s. The image transports us back in time, revealing a quaint and picturesque scene that was once a thriving community. Nestled in County Antrim, Roughfort Village was a small, close-knit settlement situated just a few miles north of Belfast city center. The village was renowned for its rich agricultural heritage and the warm hospitality of its residents. In this photograph, we can see the village's narrow streets, lined with traditional cottages, and the lush, green landscape that surrounded it. The arrival of the motor car in this era marked a significant milestone in transportation history. In this image, the presence of the motor car parked on the side of the road adds a sense of modernity and progress to the scene. The group of people gathered around it, likely admiring the new technology, further emphasizes the changing times. Despite the progress, the village retained its charm and character. The people of Roughfort Village continued to live their daily lives, tending to their farms, attending church, and socializing with their neighbors. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures and close-knit community spirit that once defined Roughfort Village and its residents.
