About

Ahoghill ward lies in the rural heartland of Mid and East Antrim, characterised by gently rolling farmland and scattered settlements. The area is primarily agricultural, with a landscape of fields and hedgerows centred around the village itself. This community serves as a local hub for the surrounding townlands, providing essential services and social focus for residents.

The ward's historical roots are evident in its traditional built fabric, including listed buildings and a distinct, preserved town centre layout. Local identity is closely tied to the annual Ahoghill Horse Fair, a longstanding event that draws visitors and reflects the area's agricultural heritage. The River Maine flows through the western part of the ward, adding a natural feature to its predominantly pastoral setting.
