Description

Did You Know? Overlooking Ballymena, Slemish Mountain was believed to be the first home of St Patrick in Ireland.

His footprint is said to be indented in a stone close to Skerry churchyard. The ‘sport’ of rat racing thrived on the shores of Lough Neagh in the 1960s, with the annual championships taking place in Norman Wilson’s bar in the main street of Crumlin. In January 1998, a 16-year-old Glengormley schoolgirl became one of the youngest National Lottery millionaires when she picked up £1,055,101 for choosing the six winning numbers. The Little Book of Antrim is a compendium of fascinating, obscure, strange and entertaining facts about County Antrim.

Here you will find out about Antrim’s people and places, its business and industry, its spectacular coasts and glens and its proud sporting heritage.

Across quaint villages and bustling towns, this book takes the reader on a journey through County Antrim and its vibrant past. A reliable reference book and a quirky guide, this can be dipped into time and again to reveal something new about the people, the heritage and the secrets of this ancient county.
