Further  north  is the city of Belfast. This is a view from the city centre over the roofs of Queen's Island showing  surviving historic works sheds and it gives a strong impression of the industrial character of this part of the city reclaimed from the Lough in the nineteenth century and the location of the Harland and Wolff Shipyard. Its protected  cranes - Sampson (1969) and Goliath (1974) are  iconic of the yard and city.
