North Armagh was a constituency of the Parliament of Northern Ireland.

Boundaries

North Armagh was a county constituency comprising the northern part of County Armagh. It was created when the House of Commons (Method of Voting and Redistribution of Seats) Act (Northern Ireland) 1929 introduced first-past-the-post elections throughout Northern Ireland. North Armagh was created by the division of Armagh into four new constituencies. The constituency survived unchanged, returning one member of Parliament, until the Parliament of Northern Ireland was temporarily suspended in 1972, and then formally abolished in 1973.

The seat was centred on the town of Lurgan and included parts of the rural districts of Armagh and Lurgan.[1]

Politics

The seat was always won by Ulster Unionist Party candidates. It was contested on five occasions, three time by nationalist candidates, once by a Northern Ireland Labour Party member, and once by an independent Unionist. The nationalist and Labour candidates each took 30 - 40% of the votes cast.[2]
