A Picturesque Leafy Village
 Brookeborough
is a picturesque, leafy village in the North East of the County.
A small village with a population well below 1000, Brookeborough
is immaculately presented. The former train station, pictured here,
has been wonderfully restored by the local Community Association,
which is now based there and is a focal point for the village.
The main street is wide and airy and, refreshingly, lined with
trees. The main road to Belfast has bypassed the village, giving
it a real air of tranquillity and a genuinely friendly atmosphere.
 The
village is set in a deeply rural environment and luxuriates in the
surrounding hills, offering a quiet and rewarding stop-off for any
visitor. The main street houses an interesting diversion with the
Brookeborough Cycle Museum, housing over 60 bikes, including many
rare and unique exhibits. An original Penny Farthing is featured.
The museum opens from 11.00am-8.00pm every day except Sundays.
Brookeborough Development Association are a cross- community and
cross-border development group involved in a number of community
initiatives and based in the old station house in Brookeborough. www.bdcda.org |
