Historical Belfast
Described in one review as a 'Belfast Tardis', Historical Belfast is Belfast's one and only history podcast on the airwaves. Hosted by historian Jason Burke, it provides an accessible and entertaining insight into the fascinating history of Northern Ireland's capital city, once proclaimed as 'the Athens of the North'.

Sandy Row in the City Cemetery
For this episode of the Historical Belfast Podcast I’ve decided to take a walk around Belfast City Cemetery on the Falls Road, a remarkable burial ground that, when inspected more closely, offers its own insight into Belfast’s complex and multi-layered history. However, I’m going to avoid providing a history of the cemetery on this occasion, because I think that deserves an episode of its own later down the line. So instead, as part of the Sandy Row mini series (which only has one episode left after this one), I’ve had a look for some Sandy Row related graves in the cemetery…
Come and take a walk with me and see what I’ve found…
