About

Ballymacash is a residential ward situated in the northern part of the Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council area. It is primarily composed of housing estates and local commercial services, with the main thoroughfare being the Ballymacash Road. The area is bounded by the River Lagan to the east, which forms a natural border, and includes the neighbourhood of Tonagh. Its landscape is largely urban in character, with green spaces provided by several local parks and playing fields.

A notable local feature is the presence of the Ballymacash Rangers Football Club, a significant community institution with a long history. The ward contains a mix of property types and is served by local primary schools and shopping facilities along the Hillhall Road. Transport connections are provided by major routes including the A1 and the A517, linking the area to Lisburn city centre and Belfast beyond. The residential streets are quiet, with a focus on family-oriented community life.
