Belcoo is on the border with the Irish Republic, in 'Bandit Country'. This was a typical heavily fortified Border Police Station built during the 1970s, with blast walls and high security fencing against mortars etc.
I was on the way to a rally in Garrison, which is just up the road, and stopped because I noticed that the station was closed.
I think that it’s a good sign that they feel that they can do without something like this, and I hope that the need for it never arises again.
