Three months after a small town in Northern Ireland waged a war on migrants, literally burning them out of their homes, the streets are deceptively quiet.
The petrol bombs and bottles have long since been cleared up but the charred buildings and boarded up windows remain in Ballymena, a town of around 30,000 north-west of Belfast.
In some windows there are still 'Locals Live Here' signs.
They were placed there by residents during three nights of fiery riots to try and prevent the marauding crowd from attacking their homes.
The fact that some people have decided to keep them there is striking.
The protests in Ballymena aren't over either.
A small group of locals meet regularly, hell-bent on making sure none of those hounded out of town come back.
There's another point to these gatherings too, as Foreign Correspondent discovered when someone slipped our producer a neatly folded-up piece of paper.
It's a printed list of addresses where the group believes members of the Roma migrant community still live.
The list is simple and shocking.
It tells you something about why, in a summer of unrest across the UK over immigration including mass protests in London last weekend, Ballymena has seen the worst of the violence.
It also gives you a sense of how uneasy the peace is.
The protesters, several dozen, walk quietly through the streets, stopping at homes on the list.
"Would you like to drive every Roma person out of Ballymena?" I ask one of the group, Ernie.
"Yeah," he tells me.
"Is it intimidation though?" I ask.
"It's not. Because what they were doing in their gangs was intimidating our women and children," he says.
"We certainly aren't intimidating. The police are there anyway, so you can't get away with that."
A bubbling pot
Roma are a formerly nomadic ethnic group now concentrated in central and eastern Europe, including in Romania and Bulgaria.
They started moving to Ballymena in larger numbers over the past decade or so.
Tensions had been rising, with locals accusing them of anti-social and criminal behaviour including selling drugs, dumping rubbish and harassing women.
So when news broke that two boys, said to be Roma, were charged with the attempted rape of a local teenage girl, it felt to some like the final straw.
Local resident Gary Lamont says the attempted rape allegation was the "tipping point".
"There was a pot bubbling for a very long time," says the married father of two teenage girls.
"And that pot bubbled over because nobody would turn down the controls on the cooker. And nobody was listening and the pot exploded."
On the evening of Monday, June 9, Gary joined a protest called in solidarity with the family of the alleged victim.
Four thousand people showed up.
It began peacefully but when the crowd started walking in the direction of Clonavon Terrace, where the attempted rape allegedly took place, police stopped them.
"That kind of created a volatile situation," Gary says.
Rioting in Northern Ireland is something of a tradition, a hangover from the three decades of deadly sectarian conflict known as the Troubles.
For historical reasons the northern summer is also a time of heightened tensions between staunch communities of pro-British Protestants and pro-Irish Catholics.
During the Troubles, Ballymena — a majority Protestant town — saw violent attacks on Catholic homes, schools and churches, but there hasn't been rioting on this scale in years.
The Good Friday Agreement of 1998 mostly brought an end to fighting between Protestant loyalist paramilitaries who want Northern Ireland to remain part of the UK, and Catholic republican paramilitaries who want a united Ireland.
This time the dividing line wasn't religion.
The mob, mainly young men dressed in dark hoodies and balaclavas, began targeting the homes of migrants.
Throwing rocks, bottles and petrol bombs, they rampaged through the streets, as police struggled to contain them.
Some of Ballymena's sizeable Filipino community were attacked, but Roma bore the brunt of the aggression.
The violence in Ballymena was condemned by the assistant Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland, Ryan Henderson, as "racist thuggery pure and simple".
"Any attempt to justify or explain it as something else is misplaced," he said.
"It's not just as simple to say that they're racist thugs," says Gary Lamont. "Unless [there's] a massive transformation of these people's culture, the Roma, they are incompatible with Northern Irish culture."
Escape from Ballymena
By the time the riots were over many of the Roma had fled, including a man who wants to be known only as Mitko.
Originally from Bulgaria, for the past few years he's lived and worked in Ballymena.
Lately he has been living in a town about an hour's drive away since he and his extended family escaped during the race riots.
On the first night of rioting, Mitko was asleep when he heard a mob in his street.
"I went numb," he recalls. "The kids started screaming and asking, 'Grandpa, what's happening, what's going on?'
"I told them, 'It's nothing, it's nothing'. I tried to calm them, because they were very scared."
By the second night, he was warned by a community representative to get out.
"'Run, wherever you can, save yourselves,' she said, 'because it will get very bad.'"
Mitko rejects claims that his community engaged in criminal and anti-social behaviour.
"They are just making things up to drive us out of Ballymena."
A border issue
Northern Ireland is the least diverse region of the UK with just 3.4 per cent of the population belonging to an ethnic minority group.
Ballymena, however, has seen relatively high levels of immigration in recent years.
Community representatives estimate that around 2,000 Filipinos now call the town home, as well as at least 1,500 Roma.
Roma from countries including Romania and Bulgaria are citizens of the European Union and some who settled in the UK before Brexit would have the right to remain and work.
Jim Allister, an MP for the Traditional Unionist Voice party at the UK parliament at Westminster, claims many others came illegally.
"What was happening in this town was uncontrolled, unregulated migration into it from Eastern Europe," he says.
"There's a great fear of being called racist if you call out something. And I think that's part of the problem."
The other part of the problem, as Jim Allister sees it, is that Brexit has failed to deliver on a central plank of the Leave campaign: stricter controls on immigration.
Ireland has a special status because of its troubled past, resulting in an open land border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
"So [the Roma] can move freely to the Republic of Ireland, which is still in the EU, and then because of the government's failure to have any controls … they've been able to come up into Northern Ireland at will."
'A long way to go'
In the immediate aftermath of the alleged attempted rape, local politician Sian Mulholland could sense "a level of hostility" building in Ballymena.
Sian is an MLA, a member of the Northern Ireland assembly, for the Alliance party, but was once a youth worker in central and eastern Europe, where she had contact with Roma communities.
"Even in their countries of origin, there is such a huge discrimination," she says. "I knew that they are a very isolated community in some ways and can be isolated."
Sian had been cultivating links with the community and when the riots broke out, she swung into action.
Community members and representatives began contacting her telling her where migrants were sheltering from the angry mob.
She says she'll never forget the first call to come through, telling her that a group of adults and children had fled to their attic as rioters broke in downstairs.
"They could hear all this noise and basically the house being ransacked," she says. "I can only imagine the terror that they were feeling at that time."
Sian stayed up that night and the next, working with police and helping them locate migrants who were in need of protection.
Some were taken to a leisure centre in the nearby town of Larne, but when its location was revealed on social media, rioters came hunting, attacking it too.
"I will never deny that there are frictions and there are tensions," she says. "The solution is not to go around to burn people's homes."
When I show Sian the piece of paper listing addresses where Roma are thought to live, she sighs and folds it up again.
"I find that really, really quite worrying and quite sinister," she says. "It makes me feel like there's a long way to go."
