Rosepark House, Belfast - February 2015(1)
Rosepark House, Belfast - February 2015(1)
A Government building, commonly called “Rosepark”, on the Upper Newtownards Road, built (I think) in the late 1960’s or early 1970’s, on what might have been the site of Dundonald telephone exchange. Originally in the form of a short-term building it was (much) later modernised to its present form. The name “Rosepark” comes from “Rose Park” a house (shown, on an old 25” map on the OSI website LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) , approximately on the site of the present Dundonald House J4074 : Dundonald House, Belfast, on the other side of the road) owned by one of the Cleland family J4173 : The restored Cleland Mausoleum, Dundonald (May 2014) and J4074 : Stormont Castle. See also J4073 : Rosepark House, Belfast - February 2015(2). Continue to J4073 : "For sale" sign, Rosepark House, Belfast (September 2015).
