About

Kilfennan is a residential ward situated in the southeastern part of Derry City. It is primarily composed of housing estates, including the large Kilfennan development itself, alongside areas like Ballynashallog and part of Culmore. The landscape is characterised by rolling hills offering views over the city and the River Foyle estuary. The ward contains several schools and local shopping facilities to serve its community.

A significant green space is the extensive grounds of the former St. Columb's Park House, now a community centre. The ward is bordered by important transport routes, including the A2 road to Limavady and the railway line. The area's history is connected to the former estate lands that once dominated this part of the city's outskirts, shaping its modern layout.
