Numerous murals

Mural painting has been a feature of Protestant popular culture since the early years of this century when symbols began to adorn the gable walls of the working-class areas of Belfast. From the early years of the nineteenth century elaborate displays of flags, flowers and bunting were hung from houses and across Ulster streets for the July commemorations of the Battle of the Boyne.
