Pottinger's Entry

  High St. & Ann St     more than a year ago
This once dilapidated alleyway has undergone a recent facelift as part of Belfast City Centre's ongoing rejuvenation. One of the city's five oldest 'streets', the Entry is named after a prominent local family (Sir Henry Pottinger was the first Governor of Hong Kong) and was once home to several newspapers including the News Letter, one of the world's oldest. At the High Street end is a ceramic tribute to the local newspaper trade, and most days the Entry provides good acoustics for a guitar-wielding busker or two.The small alleyway is also home to some independent shops, Grapevine cafe and the Morning Star pub.
