Back to school! 🎒 This is Sheepwalk School in 1911, with its teachers Miss Armstrong and Mr. Brannagh (principal). The school was based north west of Lisburn on Sheepwalk Road, near Stoneyford Reservoir.

Snap! 📸 It's World Photography Day! Today, we're reflecting on how family portraits help to capture special moments with special people. This one was taken by The Grove Studio on Lisburn's Low Road over 100 years ago, but we don't know the identity of the sitters. Who were they? Was it an important occasion?

What story do you think lies behind this image? 🤔
