Belfast Bomb
I was in town and bombs went off, smoke was drifting into the sky, I went up the Queens library tower to take these photos. It was 6th December 1971 when Marcus Wards printing works was bombed and burnt out (it was replaced by a cinema in 1992 which is now being demolished to make way for an office block)
