About

Valley ward lies in the northeastern part of Newtownabbey, primarily encompassing the residential neighbourhoods around the Valley Park area and stretching towards the Ballyclare Road. The landscape is characterised by rolling green hills and established housing developments, with a mix of detached and semi-detached homes. The ward is bordered by the Six Mile Water river, which adds a natural corridor through the local environment.

A central feature is the extensive Valley Park, offering large playing fields, woodland walks, and leisure facilities that serve as a community hub. The area is primarily residential, with local shopping concentrated along the Ballyclare Road. The presence of the Valley Leisure Centre and its surrounding complex provides a focal point for recreation and social activity within the ward.
