Local young people tell us about some of the nice things that they like to see when out in nature! Littering and flytipping can sadly ruin the chance to see some of these beautiful aspects of the Belfast Hills.

    I found this so fasinating, the amount of history of both the rivers and the areas they flow through, answers so many questions in my thoughts. Im glad I came across this video..well worth stopping to watch 😊

    I spent long summer days as a youngster fishing the a Clady and the Crumlin. I went to the boys model which sits right beside the Mile. Unfortunately my history teacher never mentioned the rich history right beside us. Great video, thank you.

    When I was a kid we knew the Glas na Brandan as the Haney. It had a healthy population of trout. I spent a lot of time wading around in it.

    That is a brilliant lecture. I don't understand the bit about the Farset river "stopping" at about the junction of what is now High St and Victoria St. I understand that the land between there and where the Lagan now flows is reclaimed land but sure all that water has to enter the Lagan somewhere?

    Can I ask a question as did not see it mentioned on the video. When the river exits the windy gap 'the gulley' it travel across the lower mountain above gortnamona, it's joined by a spring that originates just below 'the bears cave' on the foot of the mountain, and travels along the back off Dermott hill and then disappears into a culvert between new Barnsley / moyard. To the left of this point there were 2 large dams (filled in many years ago) Any history on these?

    Love thes vids keep em coming! Are you aware of the secret ancient tartarian history of tunnels and the Prince of Wales Mason Hall? Alot of money being spent in them areas... plus the hills are always changing and I wonder why and what they are doing. Is it illegal dumping in the soil or something else??? Also it would be great if u had any info on the cave Hill tunnels that lead to the storm drains... could solve the noah donahue case because the NIDFI is WITHOLDING EVIDENCE!!!!
