About

Ravernet ward lies in the rural southern part of the Lisburn and Castlereagh district. The area is characterised by a dispersed settlement pattern of small hamlets, farmsteads, and individual dwellings set within an agricultural landscape. The terrain is gently rolling, with fields bounded by hedgerows defining much of the scenery. Local roads connect the community, with the main Lagan Valley offering a distinct topographic feature to the west.

The ward is home to Ravernet Presbyterian Church, a notable historical building with an eighteenth-century foundation. Economic activity is primarily linked to farming, with some light industrial premises located near the crossroads at Clarkill. The area provides a quiet, residential setting while maintaining its strong agricultural character, with views often extending towards the distant Belfast Hills.
