The site of St George's Church marks the very beginning of Belfast. It's the place where settlement began and which gave the city its name. There are records of a chapel at Beal Feirste (Irish for the sandy ford at the mouth of the Farset) going back almost 1000 years.
The present church was designed by John Bowden of Dublin and completed in 1816.
