IN PICTURES: Through The Archives – looking back at October 1989

Over lockdown we have been busy looking through the News Letter’s photographic archive and have picked out the best photographs from bygone days.

Today’s selection comes from October 1989.

They include a close shave for Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Peter Brooke. While local mayors lend their support to a new recycling campaign.

Whilst Cregagh Primary School in Belfast celebrates its 50th anniversary.

See who you might see from days gone by.
