Templar House

Templar House was a high-rise flat (apartment) building in the New Lodge neighbourhood of Belfast, Northern Ireland, notable for its controversial role as a British Army observation post during The Troubles in Northern Ireland.[1] The post included high-technology observation devices such as electronic monitoring equipment, cameras, and night vision.[2]

The location of the outpost provoked demonstrations against it by the Irish Republican community.[3]
