From the Wikipedia article
Musgrave Park is a public park in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Situated in the south west of the city, in Ballygammon townland off Stockman's Lane, the surrounding area is a mix of trading estates and residential housing, with the M1 motorway passing close to one end. Facilities include a bowling pavilion, playing fields, walks, nature areas and bottle banks. Since 2010, it has been developing a therapy garden. The adjoining Musgrave Park Hospital specialises in rehabilitation for all ages. Grovelands, a smaller park running alongside and to the south, is connected to Musgrave by the main pathway which runs through both.

Background
History
In 1926, along with the bowling green, a putting green was built Most allotment sites have waiting lists and Belfast City Council already notes a waiting time for these new plots.
Description
Since 2010, work has been ongoing to create a therapeutic garden, with funding from the European Union's European Regional Development Fund - Peace III. Local schoolchildren were consulted in the design. By 2012, a willow tunnel, disabled access plant beds as part of a community garden and a multi-sensory 'whispering wall' had been created.
