Located in the south-east of the city, the district elected seven members to Belfast City Council and contained the wards of Ballymacarrett; Ballynafeigh; Orangefield; Ormeau; Rosetta; The Mount and Willowfield.
The area was created for the 1973 local government elections, combining the whole of the former Ormeau ward with most of the former Pottinger ward.
It was abolished for the 1985 local government elections.
The Rosetta and Ballynafeigh wards became part of a new Laganbank DEA, while the remaining five wards joined the Bloomfield ward, formerly part of Area B, in the new Pottinger DEA.
