While research on everyday streets has highlighted the complex relationship between their fabric and their economic and social life, the role of cultural heritage in this relationship is undervalued. Drawing on the performative nature of place and the concepts of everyday heritage and the taskscape, this chapter argues that mapping heritage practices can expand our understanding of everyday streets temporally and spatially. This mapping is drawn by paying close attention to the people, places and practices on everyday streets using interdisciplinary methodologies. Focusing on the case of Tivoli barbershop on North Street Belfast this chapter aims to demonstrate the contribution of local, independent shops to the everyday street's social memory, continuity and dynamic production of cultural heritage.<br/
