Keady

Keady ward sits in the southern part of the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon district, bordering County Monaghan. The area's landscape is primarily agricultural, characterised by rolling drumlin hills and small fields. The settlement of Keady itself, historically a centre for linen and lace production, is positioned along the River Callan. This location has historically connected it to the surrounding townlands and broader border region.

The local economy has traditionally been linked to agriculture and agri-food businesses. The area is known for its Gaelic Athletic Association clubs, which form a central part of community life. Remnants of its industrial past can be seen in the architecture of the town. The surrounding townlands contain a number of historic sites, including early Christian church settlements.
