Tamnaherin (possibly from the Irish: Tamhnach Caorthainn or 'field of the blackthorns')[1] is a small village and small housing estate in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. In the 2021 census it had a population of 214 people. It is situated within Derry and Strabane district.
History
In the early 19th century, Tamnaherin simply consisted of a few scattered rural properties. The addition of a Roman Catholic church in the 1970s saw the building of several more properties. In later years, however, the area has seen further development, including the addition of a small housing estate.
