Map of the UK

Northland is an electoral ward in the north of Derry City and Strabane, close to the centre of Derry and the banks of the River Foyle. It is largely residential, with a mix of older terraces and post‑war housing, and offers straightforward access to the city’s shops, schools and transport links.

The community has been shaped by industrial change and the Troubles, and more recently by regeneration and community‑led projects; local life mirrors the wider city with active sports clubs, music and cultural activities, while economic challenges have driven a focus on neighbourhood renewal and social initiatives.
