About

Lagan ward encompasses the southern edges of Lisburn city, blending suburban residential streets with more open rural landscapes. The area is defined by the River Lagan and its towpath, which provides a continuous green corridor for walking and cycling. Housing consists largely of detached and semi-detached homes, with several local schools and community facilities serving the neighbourhoods. The ward's boundaries extend into the surrounding countryside, where farmland and smaller settlements are found.

A notable local landmark is the former Lisburn Airport site, which has been redeveloped into a business and leisure park. This history of aviation is a distinctive aspect of the area's past. The ward is also home to parts of Wallace Park and the Lagan Valley Regional Park, offering substantial green space. Transport links are provided by the A1 road and railway line, connecting residents to Belfast and beyond.
