Armagh (District Electoral Area)

[1] The district elects six members to Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council and contains the wards of Blackwatertown, Cathedral, Demesne, Keady, Navan and The Mall.

It was created for the 1985 local elections, where it was called Armagh City until 2014.

It replaced Armagh Area D which had existed since 1973, and originally contained five wards (Abbey Park, Callan Bridge, Demesne, Downs, Observatory and The Mall).

For the 2014 local elections it gained most of the abolished Crossmore DEA.
