Map by Conal Kelly
This constituency, most of which had previously been in North Down, included all of Ards district and odd parts of Castlereagh. Most of the old Strangford constituency survived as the core of the new Strangford after 1995, with some territory lost to East Belfast and South Belfast and an exchange with North Down. The Member of Parliament throughout this period was John Taylor (UUP) who was also a Member of the European Parliament until 1989.
