Description

We don't know exactly where this footage of a rock slide being cleared from a coastal road took place and have no date for it other than 1966. However, a Belfast Telegraph article from October of that year pointed out the peril of mud and rock slides on the Antrim Coast - especially between Glenarm and Carnloiugh.
