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.
