The James Connolly
plaque located at the side
entrance of Belfast Central
Library on Library Street is part of
the Belfast Heritage Trail. Launched
in July 2021 it is located here as there was a
‘speaker’s corner’ which James Connolly frequented
to speak on a Saturday afternoon or a Sunday
evening. By scanning the QR code you are directed
to the Belfast Heritage Trail and can trace Connolly’s
steps. Library Street is step 8 and the QR code
reveals three augmented reality panels on Speakers
Corner, Campaigning for Election 1913 and Connolly
speaks in opposition to the war 1914.
