      History


      Antrim County Council was formed under orders issued under the Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 which came into effect on 1 April 1899. That included the existing judicial county of Antrim, except the part in the city of Belfast; the existing judicial county of the town of Carrickfergus; and the part of the existing judicial county of Down containing the town of Lisburn.
      It was originally based at the Crumlin Road Courthouse but moved to County Hall in Ballymena in 1970. It was abolished on 1 October 1973 under the Local Government Act (Northern Ireland) 1972.
