Lisburn Town (District Electoral Area) - Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lisburn Town was one of the four district electoral areas in Lisburn, Northern Ireland which existed from 1985 to 1993. The district elected seven members to Lisburn Borough Council, and formed part of the South Antrim constituency for the Northern Ireland Assembly and Lagan Valley for the UK parliament.

It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing Lisburn Area C and Lisburn Area D which had existed since 1973, and contained the wards of Harmony Hill, Hilden, Lagan Valley, Magheralave, Old Warren, Tonagh and Wallace Park. It was abolished for the 1993 local elections and divided between the Lisburn North DEA and the Lisburn South DEA.
