Rosepark Gardens

Year approved: 2019
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. (Haines and Cooke, 2003, p 24) “Coogan Architects have proposed Rosepark Gardens, Rosepark Green and Rosepark Lane as the first, second and third choice for a new street which is being developed on the site of Rosepark House which has been demolished. Rosepark is also being proposed as the name is in keeping with the surrounding streets in the area.” Approved by the People and Communities Committee, Belfast City Council, July 2019.
