This film is excellent though it's a shame that throughout, the camera is tilted in a downward direction, and you really can 't recognise many shops, buildings or really tell where you are. Spotted Robinson & Cleaver's store though, which I remember. Many thanks for posting.

Nossa , imagino como era viver mais de 120 anos atrás , sem televisao , sem rádio sem telefone , e as pessoas nem sentia falta disso . Hoje em dia temos tudo isso e muito mais, mas o homem nao se contenta quer mais, nao sei onde vamos parar. Brasil

At 3.12 you get a glimpse of Arnott's Store which was at the corner of Bridge Street and High Street. Indeed, just after that there is a sneaky glimpse of the base of the Albert Clock at the end of High Street. Great footage - just a pity not able to identify clearly other landmarks/buildings.

good spot mate 👍👍

All of them well dressed with suits, even the boys. Today it's the opposite.

[@jp-jb1bw]

Women fully clothed and men dressed in coat and hat! Just over a 100 years ago...

[@giorgiolaconi9311]

S T U P E N D O U S !!!

[@themadfarmer5207]

Must presume, the fellows with the bowler hats were Orange, and the chaps with the caps were Papists. The ladies dress so elegant at that time with their flowing dress and hats. Very interesting footage. Surprised at the quality and absence of jerkiness

[@mrsillywalk]

You presume and do so wrongly.

[@scottyb5039]

What are you smoking?

[@knowneys1977]

Does anyone know what street this is ? Maybe somewhere around City Hall ?

[@deanodog3667]

Wheres junkies in sleeping bags ??

[@view1st]

I noticed that their was a certain style of dress that seemed very popular because many of the women looked like copies of each other (black, ankle length skirt, white blouse, straw boater hat). Weird.

[@retrovideoquest]

Not sure about the "black" part... Remember this is colourized by some algorithm which basically "guesses" the colour, and it's quite possible that various different colours in a darker shade (e.g., dark green, dark blue, maroon, etc.), which would show up as "black" in the original B&W footage, ended up as "black" in this colourized version... I once saw a "colourized" video featuring the Olympic team of Finland, and the flags in their chest were colourized as red crosses on white (like the flag of England) instead of the Finish flag (blue cross on a white field). AI is not very smart, after all...

But where are all the flegs?

And not a head of bleached blonde hair to be seen... Are you sure this is Belfast? Women wearing skirts down to their toes? Belfast? Naaaa..

[@rickville8898]

Isn't dark colour hair common for Irish

[@whitetroutchannel]

@@rickville8898 it used to be the yardstick to mark a northern protestant black hair and blue eyes (the film angela's ashes even makes reference to it)

[@Albert_O_Balsam]

Shit all over the place, just like modern times
