Loughside (District Electoral Area)

Loughside was one of the four district electoral areas in Craigavon, Northern Ireland which existed from 1985 to 2014. The district elected five members to Craigavon Borough Council, and formed part of the Upper Bann constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.

It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing Craigavon Area A which had existed since 1973, and contained the wards of Aghagallon, Court, Drumnamoe, Kinnegoe and Woodville. It was abolished for the 2014 local elections and divided between the Craigavon DEA and the Lurgan DEA.
