Shankill Memorial Park
Description
Sheltered beside West Kirk Presbyterian Church lies the Shankill Memorial Park.
A hewn granite block, polished on one face, stands as a memorial to those who served and died in two world wars and all subsequent campaigns. A traditional Belfast street lamp has been erected in a corner of the Memorial Park, dedicated to the memory of all the innocent victims of terrorism from the Shankill.
The Memorial is commemorating Members of H.M. forces from the Shankill area who served and died 1914-1918, 1939-1945 and subsequent conflicts. Also the nine victims of the Shankill bombing on 23 October 1993 and all civilian casualties from the Shankill community.
