    The first committee meeting was held in January 1914 and during 1916 the present church site was purchased from Mary Graham. After a £500 bequest was left by Peter Margach for the building fund it was decided that a church should be built. The church construction was commenced early in 1918 but the framework was flattened during a cyclone in March. The building contractor, Frank Robson, replaced the framework, and the church was completed and officially opened in November 1918. In 1925, the ground under the church was excavated and a concrete hall was built by Peter Van Leeuwen, made possible from another bequest of £499 from Mary Kate Margach. This hall 36'x 26'was later enlarged by an additional 24 feet (7.3 m) and formed the foundation of the new building.[1] Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Andrew%27s_Presbyterian_Memorial...

    From Trove, 22 Sep 1865: Sir H. Cairns reviewed his Parliamentary policy and career, condemning in strong terms the Palmerston Government. He referred to the Belfast Indemnity Bill, and said Mr. Gladstone, Sir Peel, and other Ministers were against it, and if it had been thrown out the town would still be saddled with the Chancery suit I think this speech is from 12th July 1865, in Belfast.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    There seem to have been a lot of riots in Belfast around that time, and the Belfast Police were abolished and replaced by the RIC.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The building looks like a courthouse to me. Not sure why the Archive thinks it is in Belfast, other than the poster, which could be a headline anywhere.

    OSI 25" link at GeoHive (not that much has changed). The #15 tram tracks and overhead wires are the big change.

    Fashion guesses? I am thinking 1910, max 20.
