Straidarran (from Irish: Sráid(bhaile) Uí Áráin, meaning "street(town) of Ó Haran"[1][2]) is a small village between Feeny and Claudy in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. In the 2001 Census it had a population of 177. It is within the townlands of Clagan and Killycor, and is situated within Causeway Coast and Glens district.
In 2009, local residents were left feeling intimidated when loyalists erected flags in the mixed Clanna Rury housing development to commemorate the loyalist marching season.[3]
