A barge that once carried coal supplies along Ulster's waterways is back on the Lagan Canal for the first time since 1946. The Lagan lighter, built in 1871, is now moored close to the Lock Keeper's Cottage in south Belfast as the first stage in a major restoration programme.
The Industry now houses an exhibition focusing on the history of the Lagan Navigation, the workings of the locks, and the living conditions of the lighterman and his family.
