Scrabo

Scrabo ward encompasses a mix of residential and rural landscapes on the northern edge of Newtownards. The area is defined by Scrabo Hill and its prominent sandstone tower, a local landmark visible across much of the surrounding flatlands. The land includes sections of Scrabo Country Park, with its network of walking paths through woodland and open heath.

The ward contains housing developments, farmland, and the Killynether Wood nature area. Economic activity includes some light industry and retail near the main roads connecting to Newtownards centre. The topography slopes down from the hill towards the urban edge and the wetlands bordering Strangford Lough's northern shore.
