About

Ormeau ward sits in south Belfast, bordering the River Lagan to the north and the Ormeau Road as its central spine. The area is primarily residential, characterised by Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, alongside more modern apartment developments. It contains the expansive Ormeau Park, one of the city's largest green spaces, which provides sports fields, playgrounds, and riverside paths for local recreation and commuting.

The ward is home to a mix of students, young professionals, and established families, contributing to a varied local economy along its main thoroughfares. The area includes several schools and community facilities, supporting day-to-day needs. The park's former bowling green pavilion, a distinctive historic structure, now serves as a popular cafe and community hub within the green expanse.
