About

Lisnagelvin is a residential ward situated on the eastern side of Derry, bordered by the River Foyle to the west. The area is characterised by modern housing estates and several local commercial centres that serve the community. It contains significant green spaces, including the large and well-equipped Lisnagelvin Leisure Centre complex, which is a focal point for local activity. The ward's layout facilitates straightforward access to Derry city centre via the main road networks.

The area is home to Lisnagelvin Park, providing extensive walking paths and sports facilities for residents. Educational needs are met by a number of primary and post-primary schools within the ward boundaries. A notable feature is the historical Lisnagelvin House, a Georgian building that now functions as a community facility, adding a distinct architectural character to the predominantly suburban neighbourhood.
