Hi Mark, Stan Mapstone will know more than I do, but if it's the same Diamond Hall, that I think it is, it was a school at the turn of the twentieth century. There was a photo of it floating around on the forum somewhere. Will see if I can find it for you.

Diamond Hall was a large house at the end of Lisburn Terrace. Does anyone have any information on its history - when it was built, demolished? My grandmother Aleathea Stores was living in 1930 at West House, Diamond Hall. I am assuming that by 1930 Diamond Hall had been divided up into a number of houses. Does anyone know about this? I was also hoping that some photographs may exist of it or Lisburn Terrace in general. I have only seen one photograph of the Terrace published in a book on Pallion. I have also seen a few of the Arch. I would love to see some more - does anyone know if anything exists. Thanks for any help received.

Hi Rob, Thanks for your reply. Diamond Hall was different to the school (although I would like to see a photo of the school too as my dad went there). It was more information on the history of the house Diamond Hall in Lisburn Terrace that I am looking for.
