Summary
| Description |
English: Victoria Park. The idea of creating a public park near the Connswater River in East Belfast was first suggested by the Harbour Commissioner in 1854. However, as the land was very marshy, inaccessible to the public, and generally unsuitable for a public park, progress on the idea was extremely slow. Eventually, after numerous surveyors reports and drainage schemes, Victoria Park opened to the public in 1906. Due to its location at the end of Belfast Lough, Victoria Park attracts migrating birds especially waders such as spotted redshanks, ruffs and green sandpipers. Consequently the park is part of the Belfast Lough ASSI (Area of Special Scientific Interest). |
