The area around Newtownards.
Scrabo Tower on its hill marks Newtownards from miles around, at the head of Strangford Lough where the Ards peninsula begins. The town works as the shopping and service centre for the peninsula villages, and it has grown with commuters to Belfast along the dual carriageway. Housing spans old terraces off the square, post-war estates and new developments on the edges. A trade here should list the peninsula villages it reaches, because customers in Greyabbey or Kircubbin want to know someone will make the trip.
Bangor, County Down (5 miles) and Holywood (6 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Elsewhere in County Down, Downpatrick (18 miles) is within reach. Across the boundary into the next council area, Belfast (9 miles) and Carrickfergus (9 miles) are also close. A longer drive takes in Newtownabbey (11 miles), Lisburn (15 miles) and Larne (18 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Inside Newtownards, the site can name areas such as Comber, Conlig, Greyabbey, Millisle and Kircubbin.
