Ballycarry and Glynn

Ballycarry and Glynn ward encompasses a stretch of the County Antrim coastline along Larne Lough. The area includes the historic village of Ballycarry, one of Ulster's oldest Scottish Presbyterian settlements, and the linear village of Glynn situated on the lough's western shore. The landscape is characterised by mixed farmland and low coastal hills, with views across the water to Islandmagee.

The ward's geography is defined by the lough and the Belfast to Larne railway line, which runs through it. Glynn is noted for its tidal mill, a rare surviving example of this industrial heritage. The area maintains a distinct local character, with community life centred around its villages and a strong sense of historical continuity tied to its early plantation-era origins.
