Wilgar Park has been the home ground of Dundela F.C. since 1900. The park lies in the heartland of east Belfast, in a suburb named Strandtown. Its capacity is 2,500. The venue is nicknamed "The Hen Run". It is currently undergoing a facelift, with a new perimeter wooden fence, new concrete dugouts, two new blocks of seating (under the covered terrace) and a new toilet block with disabled access in and out of the ground being installed. In the long term, the 'muddy patch' above the pitch on the top of the grassy bank on the south side will hopefully have new apartments built on it (once the land gets sold), the stand and ProKick gym behind it will be knocked down and a new stand with restaurant and viewing lounge will be added, along with new premises for ProKick.

Famous quotes containing the word park:
“Borrow a child and get on welfare.
Borrow a child and stay in the house all day with the child,
or go to the public park with the child, and take the child
to the welfare office and cry and say your man left you and
be humble and wear your dress and your smile, and don’t talk
back ...”
—Susan Griffin (b. 1943)
