An Enniskillen Facebook group recently posted an old photo of the streets area of the town, which brought back memories for many of us; the pic showed the whole area opposite the Cathedral hall right over to the former RUC barracks packed with housing. The accompanying message said: “The heart went out of Enniskillen town when the houses on the island were replaced with car parks and businesses.” It’s a sentiment I agree 100 per cent with, and not just for nostalgic reasons of remembering the times I walked from Cornagrade, the estate I was born in, down past the streets on my way with my parents to get chips or ice cream in The Derby, or on the way to the Broadmeadow to watch my older cousins playing football.
