About

Drumahoe ward lies within the eastern outskirts of Derry, primarily a residential area characterised by housing estates and local community infrastructure. The topography includes gentle slopes and green spaces, with the ward bordered by the River Faughan to the east. This setting provides a distinct separation from more central urban zones, creating an environment oriented around family homes and local services.

The area is notable for the presence of the former Drumahoe railway station, a structure that speaks to its historical connections. Development continues with new housing, while existing commercial activity is focused along the main Skeoge Road. The ward's layout and community facilities reflect its function as a settled suburb within the wider city framework.
