Antrim South East (District Electoral Area)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antrim South East DEA (1993-2014) within Antrim

Antrim South East was one of the three district electoral areas in Antrim, Northern Ireland which existed from 1985 to 2014. The district elected seven members to Antrim Borough Council and formed part of the South Antrim constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.

It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing Antrim Area B which had existed since 1973, and contained the wards of Aldergrove, Ballycraigy, Clady, Crumlin, Greystone, New Park and Templepatrick. For the 1993 local elections, it lost Greystone to Antrim DEA but gained Parkgate. It was abolished for the 2014 local elections and most of the area was transferred to the new Airport DEA.
