Red-brick terraces and damp, windy weather
Many Belfast terraces have small yards bounded by brick walls, with timber fencing or gates used to add privacy and security. Entries behind the houses help contractors get materials in.
Belfast's mild, damp climate and winds off Belfast Lough mean timber needs regular treatment, and concrete posts and gravel boards help fences last longer.
Belfast's red-brick terraces fill neighbourhoods across the city, most with a small yard or garden and an entry or alleyway behind. South Belfast's Malone and Stranmillis areas have larger Victorian and Edwardian homes, while east Belfast and the suburbs offer a mix of semis and detached houses.
