There was an advert in the Northern Whig - Saturday 18 April 1885 for Ardenlee House. Ardenlee House featured in The Belfast Directory for 1887. Ardenlee Avenue featured in the 1895 Belfast And Province Of Ulster Directory. It is likely the Ardenlee street names are named for Ardenlee House. This was a common practice throughout Belfast. The minutes of the Adjourned Health and Environmental Services Committee of Monday, 16th February, 1998 indicate the following street names were approved: …Ardenlee Crescent, Ardenlee Way, Ardenlee Park, Ardenlee Place off Ardenlee Road and Ardenlee Green for The Carvill Group and Ardenwood Off Millar Street also for The Carvill Group. In what's app group correspondence with Martin Magill, Richard Acheson who put forward names on behalf of the Carvill Group confirmed this: "In relation to Ardenlee, Carvills built approx 400 homes on the site of Belfast Cooperative Wholesale Society land which stretched from Ravenhill Rd to Millar Street and Ravenhill Ave. The main entrance to the development was past the funeral home on Ravenhill Road. I selected Ardenlee Green as the name of the development- which then had derivatives plus other names eg Old Bakers Court - there was also a bakery there. The name Ardenlee was selected by myself purely because of the upmarket image portrayed by Ardenlee Ave ie large up market Victorian detached and semi detached houses". (28 February 2024).
