About

Claudy ward encompasses a primarily rural landscape on the eastern edge of Derry City and Strabane District. The area is centred on the village of Claudy itself, situated along the River Faughan. The surrounding terrain is characterised by low hills, farmland, and stretches of woodland. This setting provides a contrast to the more urban wards found closer to Derry city centre.

The local economy has historical connections to agriculture and linen production. The area is traversed by the main A6 road, a key transport link. A notable local feature is the Ness Country Park, which offers walking trails along the Burntollet River. The ward's community is served by local schools, shops, and sporting facilities centred in the village.
