The person was pictured at the New World on Durham Street wearing a full, shiny set of armour and carrying a small wicker basket.
Photos of the knight were sent to 1 NEWS, with one witness saying it “made everyone’s day”.
While unorthodox, the outfit appears to adhere to the requirements of PPE and by covering up so much, is likely to protect from the spread of Covid-19.
The virus is transmitted by tiny infectious droplets, usually spread by coughing, sneezing, or touching and contaminating a surface.
