A You Are Here map and information board on Oxford Street/Chichester Street, Belfast.
"Oxford Street was once at the heart of the Belfast markets and in the 19th century was alive with stallholders and traders, selling everything from flax, potatos and vegetables, to pork, eggs and fish.
Today, Lanyon Place is the location of pristine office buildings, a hotel and concert hall, but in the late 1800s it was here herds of cattle and sheep were walked to market and a place where the city met the country."
