• Source: Antrim Line (District Electoral Area)
  • Antrim Line was one of the district electoral areas in Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland which existed from 1985 to 2014, one of five DEAs until 1993 and one of four DEAs until 2014. The district elected five members to Newtownabbey Borough Council until 1993 and seven members until 2014, and formed part of the South Antrim constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament and part of the Belfast North constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.
    It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing Newtownabbey Area D which had existed since 1973, and originally contained the wards of Ballyhenry, Collinbridge, Glebe, Glengormley and Hightown. For the
    1993 local elections, it gained another two wards, Burnthill from the abolished Manse Road DEA and Mallusk from the Ballyclare DEA. It was abolished for the 2014 local elections and mainly replaced by the new Glengormley Urban DEA, with Mallusk moving to the new Airport DEA.
