Havelock Street

First appears: 1865-1866 (BPUD)
This street is named after Sir Henry Havelock (5 April 1795 – 24 November 1857) who made a reputation for himself during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. "The dust and smoke of the war with Russia had scarcely settled down before the Indian Mutiny broke out in 1857. We have Cawnpore Street, Lucknow Street, Havelock Street and Place, Lawrence Street, and Outram Street. Delhi Street probably comes from the same source, but was built much later". "Empire Battle Memories" John J Marshall, Belfast Telegraph - Friday 07 March 1941. Havelock Street (off Ormeau Road)  is listed in the Directory of Belfast and Province of Ulster (1865-1866)
