Havelock House, Belfast - May 2018(1)
The Havelock Street side of Havelock House. The building, extended in 1993 (left), was originally James Thompson & Sons (Belfast) Ltd, linen and cambric handkerchief manufacturers.
Havelock Street (Havelock Place on the Google map), now abandoned as a public street, includes part of the site of Havelock Cottage shown, in the 1880 street directory, occupied by Samuel Johnston, whitesmith LinkExternal link.
Old maps show that the street was on (or very close to) the site of Cromac Lodge (believed to have been built around 1780 when the area was mainly undeveloped countryside).
