About Ballymoney - show infohide info
Ballymena is a town in County Antrim in Northern Ireland. It is one of the oldest towns in Ireland, although it is no longer built on the site of its origins. The original site for Ballymena lies in the great mound beside the River Bann near the present Agivey Bridge, which became the residence of the local Celtic King. The new settlement occurred following the Norse invasion, when the new town was constructed around two Celtic forts, on one of which the Normans built a fortified house. From here, Ballymena developed into a route centre and market town. In the Borough of Ballymoney there are many ancient ecclesiastical sites, including Derrykeighan which is believed to have been a place of religious significance since 470AD. Discoveries in 1981 unveiled an ancient stone built into the walls of the ruined church. The stone was carved with what was later identified to be Iron Age art. It remains unclear however, as to why a stone with Pagan symbolism was used in the church wall. Ballymoney suffered great losses during the 1641 Rebellion, and felt great affects of the Rebellion of 1798, which was an attempt to bring ‘a complete and radical reform of the representation of the people in Parliament’ which had to include ‘Irishmen of every religious persuasion’. More recently, Ballymoney is well known internationally for producing highly successful motorcyclists. In the early 20th century, the Ballymoney Motor Cycle and Light Car Club (MC&LCC) was created. The first members were enthused by both motorsport bikes and cars, and the club held its first event Magilligan Strand in July 1925.
