About Ballymena - show infohide info

Ballymena is a town of County Antrim in Northern Ireland, nestled in pleasant valley of the River Braid, and with a backdrop of the Slemish Mountain on the Braid valley. At the Slemish Mountain was the scene of St Patrick's six-year captivity as a youth. The shrine of St Patrick is a place of pilgrimage. The name of Ballymena comes from the Irish Gaelic “An Baile Meadhonachâ€? (modern Meanach) meaning “the middle townland. Ballymena is in central Antrim at the convergence of many roads and has become important with regard to the linen industry amongst others. The first recorded history of the Ballymena area dates to the Early Christian period from the 5th to the 7th century. At the end of the 5th century, a nearby Church was founded in Connor, followed by a monastery at Templemoyle, Kells. In 831 the Church was burned to the ground following a Norse invasion. By 1576, the town of Ballymena was granted to Sir Thomas Smith by Queen Elizabeth I. Smith brought English settlers to the area. In 1581 however, the settlement failed; the lands reverted to the crown. 1641 saw the Ballymena garrison fight against a rebellion, but was a followed by a retreat to Carrickfergus. Come 1684, Ballymena’s first market house was built. The first Protestant parish Church appeared in 1707, while the first Ballymena Castle was destroyed by fire in 1740. By 1900, Ballymena assumed urban status. Ballymena’s modern history includes the grant of the Freedom of the Borough to the Royal Irish Regiment in the 1990s. Religiously, Ballymena is a Protestant stronghold, and described by some as the equivalent to America’s Bible Belt. However, the town also has severe difficulties with widespread heroin abuse.
