The Greenisland estate (top) was built by the Northern Ireland Housing Trust in the 1950’s. Before then Greenisland had mainly consisted of private houses along the Station Road and those at the bottom of the photo. The Belfast – Larne Harbour railway runs across the middle. The view is from the war memorial at Knockagh Image
