Magherafelt
Magherafelt is a town historically in County Londonderry astride the old highway from Belfast to Derry and Donegal. The A6 now bypasses it to the north, and the counties have been abolished as units of local government, so from 2015 Magherafelt has been part of Mid-Ulster District.| Tap on a place to explore it |
