EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a breathtaking elevated view of The Park and Bowling Green in Bangor, Northern Ireland. Nestled in the heart of County Down, this idyllic scene transports us back in time, inviting us to witness a leisurely moment in history.

Onlookers, both young and old, gather around the green, some clapping and cheering, others simply enjoying the sunny day. Beyond the bowling green, Ward Park stretches out, filled with people taking a respite from their daily routines. Families picnic on blankets, children play on swings and see-saws, and couples stroll hand in hand.

This photograph is a precious reminder of the simple joys and communal spirit that once defined a day at the park. The Park and Bowling Green in Bangor continues to be a cherished destination for locals and visitors alike, offering a glimpse into the rich history and charm of Northern Ireland.
