Built in a Gothic style, it features a castellated parapet and turret-like details that echo the look of the main house. Today it stands as one of the most distinctive remnants of the castle complex, marking the historic gateway to the estate.

Wide paths through a quiet park.

The Tommy Givan Velodrome is a small but beautiful cycling track in Belfast, which has its own special atmosphere, especially in sunny weather. Nestled in green areas and surrounded by tall trees, it offers cycling enthusiasts the opportunity to do a few quick laps on the asphalt track. It's not about high-tech and hectic, but about pure riding pleasure in a peaceful environment. The slightly inclined curves invite you to take the momentum with you, and with every lap you feel the special flair of a velodrome, which may seem rather inconspicuous, but precisely because of that has its own charm. A perfect place to just pick up the pace and clear your head.

The paths meander through lush greenery that makes you feel like you're far away from the city. A well-kept park that offers space for both exercise and relaxed rolling. The tree-lined avenues are particularly beautiful - perfect for cycling in the interplay of light and shadow. The route also runs along the Connswater Community Greenway, a green corridor through Belfast that beautifully connects Orangefield Park with other green areas of the city. The evening atmosphere with the play of light on the manicured lawn and the clouds over Belfast is definitely worth a moment to pause - a calm contrast to the otherwise busy city. Ideal for a relaxed ride in the early morning or to wind down in the evening without being too far away.

Simple sandwiches, paninies and drinks. outdoor seating or in a covered space.
