An Orange Order parade at the heart of one of the most controversial marching disputes has taking place.

A loyalist protest camp at Twaddell in north Belfast is being dismantled.

It's after orange men completed one of the most controversial parades this morning.

An historic deal was struck between residents in Ardoyne and the Orange Order, bringing to an end a 3 year bitter dispute.

Around 60 people protested from the Greater Ardoyne Residents Collective.

But a heavy police presence ensured this morning passed off without incident.

Speaking to Q Radio, Deputy Grand Master Spencer Beattie says he's thankful for the support in the last three and a half years.
