		That the amenity of the area was not neglected is evidenced by the fact that rhododendrons and laurels covered vast areas under tree crop while the arboretum, maintained by successive generations of the family, is now one of the finest in the United Kingdom.
		The extensive area of woodland in the Forest Park is managed as a commercial forest together with other plantations in the district, including those at Drumkeeragh on the lower eastern slopes of Slieve Croob, at Drumaness near Ballynahinch, at Castleward, some seven miles east of Downpatrick and at Hollymount.

		Stone walls rather than hedgerows are the common field boundary between the mountains and the sea, whereas inland of the mountains there is a distinctive mix of tall hedgerows, streamside woods and ribbons of trees around lakes trapped by drumlins.

		In Scotland a project started several years ago called the 7 Stanes, a collection of various trails situated in seven different forests in the south of Scotland has been a great success.
		A report from the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) who after undertaking a comprehensive study visit to Northern Ireland and all the proposed sites stated that with the diverse range of sites Northern Ireland had the ability to surpass any other area of the UK and Ireland.
		It is therefore sad that because Forest Service Northern Ireland has moved slowly and reluctantly during the past three years, we have once again lost the opportunity to become a market leader in an activity in the island of Ireland.
