What is recorded here
Belmont Avenue still drops its shadows across the blue plaque marking the birthplace of poet and broadcaster William Robert Rodgers. The house waited through decades of rain and memory before the Ulster History Circle gave that patience a voice. Rodgers carried the lane into radio and verse, proving that ordinary walls can birth uncommon fire.
