ST. CATHERINE’S TERRACE

This large house, lately known as The Priory, stood at the foot of Medina Villas. Although part of the Cliftonville Estate it was built a few years later than most of the neighbouring houses. It dated from the year 1864 and it was the subject of a restrictive covenant which limited the use of the land to a private residence. The original intention was to build an eleven-storey block of flats here, but this aroused opposition from neighbouring residents and a limit of eight storeys was imposed. Photograph taken 20 July 1958. The house was demolished in 1959, and the flats built 1960-1961.
