This street name can be traced by to its proximity to Divis. "It is possible that the name 'Black Mountain' is in fact a translation of the Irish name Dubhais (from which we get Divis) and that originally Divis and Black Mountain were thought of as being all the one mountain, named from its highest peak, Dubhais"".
