The original Rosepark villa stood facing Stormont House (later Stormont Castle) of the Cleland family across what is now the Upper Newtownards Road. Rosepark was built in 1830 for Octavia Crawford of Cabin Hill. ...The name of Rosepark is retained in the housing development which emerged in the area of the original house between 1934 and 1938.
