More about this scene
When Belfast took over the tramway system to Glengormley, it found itself possessed of property outside the City boundary, along with some very attractive terrain sloping up to the mountains. The forceful manager of the tramways persuaded his committee to find the money to create paths to form a leisure park. Some years later, a report told of a very profitable tram route, with people 'flocking' to enjoy the park. When the adjoining Hazelwood Estate became available, this same committee took it over and worked hard to bring about what we see here. The house itself was now a café/restaurant.
