The view along Clarke’s Lane J3374 : Clarke's Lane, Belfast (July 2008) towards Curtis Street. The excavator is on this site J3374 : York Street demolition work, Belfast (2013-3) (51-57 York Street). The building on the right is the former Play Board building (59-65 York Street J3374 : Nos 59-65 York Street, Belfast). It’s not clear whether Clarke’s Lane will remain as a public thoroughfare after redevelopment or whether it will suffer the same fate as the Long Lane J3374 : Long Lane, Belfast.
