Call to save 'derelict' listed building in popular South Belfast park

A petition has been launched calling for a listed building in a popular South Belfast park to be saved from "dereliction and ruin".

Sharon Marks has raised concerns around the state of Wilmont House, based in the heart of Sir Thomas and Lady Dixon Park, which she says has lay empty for over a decade and begun to come into a state of disrepair.

The listed building and the surrounding grounds were gifted to Belfast City Council following the death of Lady Edith Dixon, on the stipulation that the 140 acres became a public park and Wilmont House a hospital or care home.
