Gardenmore House (Now North Queen Street, 1889): A Glimpse into Belfast's Past This evocative photograph captures the haunting beauty of Gardenmore House, once a grand and imposing residence now lost to the passage of time, located on what is now North Queen Street in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Dating back to the late 19th century, the house was built during a period of significant growth and prosperity in the city, which was then a thriving industrial hub. The image, taken circa early 1900s, reveals a large, derelict house, its once-magnificent facade now marred by decay and neglect. The once-pristine white walls are now covered in grime and moss, and the grand windows, which would have once offered breathtaking views of the city, are now shattered and boarded up. The garden, once a lush and well-tended oasis, is now overgrown and wild. Despite its current state of disrepair, the house retains an undeniable allure, a testament to the history and character of Belfast. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the city's past and the lives of those who once called Gardenmore House their home. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the transient nature of time and the importance of preserving our heritage for future generations. Today, the site of Gardenmore House is a busy and bustling part of Belfast, with North Queen Street now a popular destination for shopping, dining, and cultural experiences. Yet, as we go about our daily lives, it is worth taking a moment to reflect on the stories and history that lie hidden beneath the surface of our cities and towns.
