Maghaberry is a small village and ward in Lisburn and Castlereagh, lying within County Antrim in Northern Ireland. It sits in a gently rolling, drumlin-studded agricultural landscape to the east of Lisburn, within commuting distance of Belfast, and combines rural character with easy road links to larger towns.
The locality is perhaps best known for HM Prison Maghaberry, a high-security facility that provides significant local employment and has influenced the village’s modern profile. Beyond that, the area retains a community-focused feel with a primary school, local shops and sports clubs, a mix of farming and commuter households, and the kind of social and economic changes seen across small Antrim settlements in recent decades.
