George Best House

Today would have been George Best's 80th birthday 🎂

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GEORGE ⚽️

Many thanks to BBC The One Show for featuring George Best House last night ⚽️

We recently welcomed Lucy Scott, a social historian and YouTuber from England who made this great video about her stay: https://youtu.be/Ttjyxmx5fSE?si=JDGxfewHc4PiQeh9

Lucy also took time to visit the Heritage Centre at Templemore Baths managed by Visit EastSide / EastSide Partnership . She took a guided tour with one of the guides there and explored more of Belfast's social history while exploring the beautifully restored Victorian building from 1893, and a place where young George swam and socialised as a boy!
