Castlereagh East DEA (1993-2014) within Castlereagh

Castlereagh East is one of the seven district electoral areas (DEA) in Lisburn and Castlereagh, Northern Ireland.[1] The district elects five members to Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council and contains the wards of Ballyhanwood, Carrowreagh, Dundonald, Enler, Graham's Bridge and Moneyreagh.[2] Castlereagh East forms part of the Belfast East constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.

It was created for the 1985 local elections, replacing Castlereagh Area B which had existed since 1973, where it contained seven wards (Ballyhanwood, Carrowreagh, Dundonald, Enler, Gilnahirk, Graham's Bridge and Tullycarnet). For the 2014 local elections, it was decreased to six wards. The Gilnahirk and Tullycarnet areas were transferred to Belfast City Council, while Moneyreagh was gained from Castlereagh South.
