Northern Ireland’s ‘Big Snow 2010’: Looking back in pictures

In late November 2010 Northern Ireland was blanketed with a thick layer of snow which remained until the New Year.

Temperatures plummeted towards -20 in many areas and the entire country became a winter wonderland.

We even had a white Christmas.

We’ve delved into the archives to bring some of the images from the time.
