Milltown is a small settlement in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It is within the townland of Derriaghy,[1] about one mile to the north of Lisburn.

It had a population of 1,499 people (571 households) in the 2011 Census.[2]
Milltown is a local service centre with facilities including retail units, the former Derriaghy Primary School, Christ Church, Church of Ireland and hall, Derriaghy Gospel Hall and a Community Centre. There is a railway halt in Derriaghy, to the east.
