Men of Belfast

"O city of sound and motion!
O city of endless stir! From the dawn of a misty morning,
To the fall of the evening air; From the night of moving shadows
To the sound of the shipyard horn; We hail thee Queen of the Northland'
We who are Belfast born."
Thomas Carnduff (Songs from the Shipyards) 1924

Belfast led the world in the industrial pioneering of shipbuilding, linen manufacturing and rope production. Belfast as it used to be explored Belfast's rich industrial heritage through archive, filmed interviews, drama and music and was premiered at Belfast City Hall in 2004.
