Here the focus is Belfast’s industrial shoreline: storage-tank compounds, service roads, railway embankments and reclaimed ground. The Army revised the Ordnance Survey base using aerial photographs and Headquarters Northern Ireland information. Its military legend separates roofless ruins from habitable derelict buildings, flagging possible concealment for gunmen, weapons and explosive devices; archways identify covered passages, alongside symbols for telephone boxes and police stations. Orange roads and a 100-metre grid facilitate precise reporting and patrol planning across industrial and suburban terrain. The “Limited Distribution” notice expressly restricts release outside government service.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54231692181851,"sku":"P-8-007259","price":70.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-8-007259a.jpg?v=1790885176","url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/products\/belfast-harbour-holywood-now-airport-troubles-military-map-mod-re-1979-p-8-007259","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
