DARK SECRETS: Belfast remembers beloved department store anderson mcauley - The Real Truth

The shop that used to reside on the corner of Donegall Place and Castle Street for over 130 years is fondly remembered by generations of Belfast residents as a luxurious shopping destination in the heart of the city.
