About

Torr Head and Rathlin ward encompasses a rugged coastal stretch and Northern Ireland's only inhabited offshore island. The mainland portion features steep cliffs and narrow roads, including the Torr Head Scenic Route with views towards Scotland. Sheep farming dominates the sparse agricultural land, while small harbours like Murlough Bay serve local fishing needs. The landscape shows evidence of ancient settlement through scattered archaeological sites and abandoned clachans.

Rathlin Island lies six miles off the coast, accessible by ferry from Ballycastle. Its L-shaped form contains the Kebble nature reserve, important for seabird colonies including puffins. The island has a permanent population concentrated in the south, with landmarks like the upside-down West Lighthouse. The waters here, part of the Sea of Moyle, are known for strong currents and historical shipwrecks.
