    In 1888 Berkeley Deane Wise was appointed engineer to the Belfast and Northern Counties Railway. His work in Whitehead included the creation of Blackhead Path, the promenade, ladies and gents bathing boxes on the promenade, a beach (using imported sand from Portrush) and a bandstand. He also designed Sunshine House.

    Amazing that the balcony is still there, if only a bit altered. Streetview: goo.gl/maps/aR8ACVGYrdm

    Mike Grimes That should be "Roadview" ... "Whitehead is unique in that there are no streets with the suffix "Street" in their name, giving rise to the nickname The Town With No Streets." From - branches.britishlegion.org.uk/branches/whitehead/whitehea...

    "The present church (Whitehead Presbyterian Church) on King’s Road was completed in 1905 at a cost of £3,200, which included heating and lighting. Its bell tower was added in 1935." www.midandeastantrim.gov.uk/assets/Whitehead_Heritage_and... So this photo was taken between 1905 and 1935, since the church is already standing, but the tower is not yet visible. (Rather 1905 than 1935)
