Mossley is a ward within the Antrim and Newtownabbey borough on the northern outskirts of Belfast in Northern Ireland. It covers a mix of suburban and semi‑rural neighbourhoods, where residential streets and local shops sit alongside patches of farmland and green space; its situation close to main road links means many residents commute into the city while still drawing on local employment and services.

Historically the locality grew up around small-scale milling and agriculture, and traces of that industrial past have often been repurposed for modern business and community uses. Social life is centred on schools, community centres and sports clubs, giving the ward a village-like feel even as it benefits from easy access to larger urban centres for work and leisure.
