The Borough of Antrim in County Antrim was enfranchised as a borough constituency in 1666.

The constituency was disenfranchised on 31 December 1800.
The borough was represented in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom as part of the county constituency of Antrim.
Electoral System and Electorate
The parliamentary representatives of the borough were elected using the bloc vote for two-member elections and first past the post for single-member by-elections. First past the post was also used for the county division.
