“Falls/Clonard 25 years of resistance”. The mural combines an image of British troops deployed to Belfast in 1969 (similar to this Stan Meagher photo) with Stephen Bradley’s photo of women banging bin-lids on the ground to alert the community to the presence of soldiers, against a background of burnt-out buildings (reminiscent of Bombay Street).
The writing on the lower wall – “25 years – time for peace, time to go. Demilitarise now!” – was produced by a stencil – see the Peter Moloney Collection for in-progress images.
