Little Lea

Circular Road, Belfast
Little Lea was the Lewis family home from 1905 until 1930. It was here that Lewis first took to writing as a hobby in his childhood because of a disability in his thumbs, which meant he could not make things with his hands. He claimed that someone could do more with a castle in a story than with any cardboard castle that ever stood on a nursery table. Few have proved him wrong.
*The house is now a private residence.
