About

Dundooan ward lies on the northern coast of County Londonderry, within the Causeway Coast and Glens council area. The landscape is characterised by agricultural land and a rugged coastline, with the Atlantic Ocean defining its northern boundary. The area includes the village of Articlave and parts of the larger town of Castlerock, which serves as a local hub.

A notable coastal feature here is the extensive dune system at the Bann estuary, which forms part of a significant nature reserve. The area's economy has traditional ties to farming and the sea. The main transport link is the Belfast to Derry railway line, which runs along the coast, connecting the ward to larger urban centres.
