Arms caches were discovered by police in Belfast in the weeks either side of the rising. A substantial haul of Enfield rifles, revolvers, swords, and pike-heads was found at a house in Hamill Street in January 1867, predating the outbreak, and a further haul in Pound Street on 11 March 1867, less than a week after the failed rising at Tallaght. Belfast lies outside the declared allowed-place scope; the location is recorded here for reference only.
