Step Back In Time

Belfast, 1901.

This two-minute video, from the Mitchell and Kenyon Collection of the British Film Institute, does not show any historically important or humorous events. 
Instead, what one sees is a view from a horse-drawn tramcar on Royal Street in  Belfast at the beginning of the last century.
There are three companion videos posted  at the Ptak Science Books link: Manchester, Bradford, and Wigan, all in 1902
