Garden Village, Whitehead
The concept of the “garden village” was pioneered in Co Antrim by Thomas McGrath who, it is said, was influenced by the French architecture he had seen while serving in WW1. In 1946 he formed Ulster Garden Villages Limited to build estates at six places in, or close to, east Antrim. Merville is the best known and Whitehead is, perhaps, the least known. Whitehead lacks the trees of the former but is otherwise very similar. The architect for all the schemes was E Prentice Mawson, eldest son of Thomas Hayton Mawson the Edwardian landscape gardener. The houses are on the Islandmagee Road. For an interesting comparison with the work of another architect see Image Continue to Image and Image

"Darby Selflock" access cover, Whitehead
A Darby “Selflock” access cover at the Islandmagee Road end of Rasnevyn Drive. My amateur research (which might be completely wrong) suggests that the name originated with Abraham Darby http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Darby_I and after closure was acquired by Glynwed http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=41158277 which is now part of the PAM Saint-Gobain Group Image The specification “D400” refers to “access covers and gratings capable of withstanding a 40 tonnes test load. For use in areas where cars and lorries have access, including carriageways, hard shoulders and pedestrian areas”.
