Custom House
- Address: Donegall Quay, Central District, Belfast
- Category: Architectural Sites
- Location: Central District
Fodor's Review:
The 19th-century architect Charles Lanyon designed the Custom House. This building, along with many others in Belfast, including the main building of Queen's University and the unusual Sinclair Seaman's Church, bear the hallmarks of his skill. It's not open to the public, but it's worth circling the house to view the lofty pediment of Brittania, Mercury, and Neptune on the front, carved by acclaimed stonemason Thomas Fitzpatrick. Custom House Square has recently been refurbished for use for open air concerts and performances during the Autumn festival season.
