On 1 April 2015 local government was re-organised with most council areas (except Belfast) being amalgamated into larger districts. This sign, beside the dual carriageway, is at the boundary between the new Lisburn & Castlereagh and Ards & North Down districts – previously Castlereagh and Ards districts. It replaces one similar to this Image Before the formal boundary alterations “shadow” councils existed to plan the changeover.
