Doagh (/ˈdoʊx/ DOHKH; from Irish Dumhach, meaning 'mound')[1] is a village and townland in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It is in the Six Mile Water Valley, about two miles south-west of Ballyclare, and had a population of 1,404 people in the 2021 census.[2] It is known as Doach in Scots.[3]

While older 19th century housing stands in the village centre, the village has gradually grown and new housing estates have been built on its outskirts.[citation needed]
