Wellington Road (Bóthar Wellington in Irish) is an inner-city stretch of road on the north side of Cork city. Wellington Road stretches over a kilometre from St. Patricks Place off St. Patricks Hill, to St. Lukes Cross at the eastern end of the road. thumbnail ==Population== Historically, the area was populated by well-to-do families in large houses. At the eastern end of the street, many of the houses were associated with the nearby Victoria Barracks. In the mid 20th century, most of these houses were sub-divided - into offices at the western end of the street and flats at the eastern end. Over time, these became associated with a transient population as many of the small bedsits created were among the lowest rents available in the city. From the 1990s onwards, the process was reversed with some of the houses restored to single family use and others converted to have a smaller number of more desirable units. However, since the bursting of the Irish property bubble this process has largely stopped. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wellington Road, Cork」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
