According to the author of a history of Cliftonville Golf Club Hugh Daly Sir William Frederick Neill an estate agent and an Ulster Unionist politician and MP bought land on which Cliftonville Club club had 18 holes leaving the club with just the land leased from the Belfast Water Commissioners and thus becoming a 9 hole golf club. Neill built Joanmount housing estate on it which he named after his daughter Joan. Daly wrote: “There is a legacy of the 18-hole golf course - nearly all the streets that were built near or on the land sold by Cliftonville Golf Club were named after prestigious golf courses. I assume that this was part of the sale agreement between Sir William and Cliftonville Golf Club”. He included a table with this information: Sunningdale: Sunningdale Golf Club Berkshire, England; Meyrick: Meyrick Park Golf Club Dorset, England; Coombe Hill: Coombe Hill Golf Club Surrey, England; Prestwick: Prestwick Golf Club Ayrshire, Scotland; Wallasey: Wallasey Golf Club Wirral, England; Formby: Formby Golf Club; Hoylake: Royal Liverpool Golf Club Liverpool, England Hoylake, England.
