From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Larne Town DEA (1993-2014) within Larne

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

It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing most of Larne Area C which had existed since 1973, and contained the wards of Blackcave, Central, Gardenmore, Harbour and Town Parks. It was abolished for the 2014 local elections and most of the area was transferred to the Coast Road DEA, with some also moving to the Larne Lough DEA.
