	Ardoyne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ardoyne (Ard Eoin in Irish, meaning high glen) is a predominantly Irish nationalist and Catholic district in North Belfast, Northern Ireland, made famous by the disproportionate number of incidents during "The Troubles".
		Residents on the opposite side of the Ardoyne Road are barricaded into their street by the police and British Army for several hours throughout the day, in the morning when the march goes by and in the evening when it returns, since there are only two exists from the estate.
		Despite the local community group, the Ardoyne Parades Dialogue Group, and representatives of the march, the North and West Belfast Parades Forum, reaching an accommodation which imposed conditions on the march, golf balls and stones were thrown by a crowd being kept back by stewards.

	BBC News \| NORTHERN IRELAND \| Ardoyne stories: Behind nationalist lines
		The street outside Ardoyne's advice office may be littered with signs of youths taking out their boredom on their environment, but inside it's a model of activity.
		Ardoyne may be overrun with social problems but the nationalist community likes to think that it has a sense of cohesion and optimism about the future.
		Some in the nationalist community suggest that not all of Ardoyne's republicans are happy with the peace process - and Mr Kell's death was proof of fragmentation - fragmentation that the IRA quickly stamped upon.

	BBC News \| NORTHERN IRELAND \| Ardoyne Stories: Peace lines and division
		A few yards past an invisible border at Alliance Avenue, the green is replaced by the orange and loyalist flags flutter in the breeze.
		Ardoyne, an "interface" area where Protestant and a much larger Catholic communities live cheek by jowl, has witnessed some of the worst violence of the Troubles: Mass movements of people, open street fighting, clashes with security forces, shootings and intimidation.
		There are some loyalists in Ardoyne who now want a "peace line" erected between the communities - gates which can be opened or shut to allow access or keep the communities apart.

	Education \| A hard lesson at Holy Cross
		Ardoyne then was one of the most dangerous places in Europe as Catholics and Protestants were forced out of their homes and the local IRA engaged in protracted sniping attacks on the British Army and loyalist paramilitaries.
		Her bucolic memories of Holy Cross and Ardoyne Road as an oasis of relative peace amid the sectarian maelstrom of the Seventies contrast with the scenes of hatred and terror experienced by her own child on that same road 30 years later.
		I can't trust some of those parents from Ardoyne who are determined to push their kids up the road despite the damage it's doing to their children.

	September 2001
		Around 4.30am RUC Brit army moved in to the Ardoyne Road in force and set about setting up a barrier of perspex along the foot path at the left hand side of the Ardoyne Road, where the parents and their children would have to walk through.

	THE BLANKET * Index: Current Articles
		The specific factors in Ardoyne include "punishment" attacks by the "Irish National Liberation Army." Although this, too, cannot be offered as a full explanation, neither can it be coincidence that Anthony O'Neill and Barney Cairns, both 18, whose suicides prompted widespread comment, had been victims of INLA assaults.
		The notion that the INLA had done this "against their will...acting under pressure from the community," is an insult to the people of Ardoyne and to working class people generally.
		Youngsters from Ardoyne, as from any working class area, need politics which invite them to take control of their own lives as part of a movement of the working class and the marginalised to take control of society.

	Holy Cross dispute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Holy Cross dispute occurred in 2001 and 2002 in the Ardoyne area of Belfast, Northern Ireland, and involved residents of a unionist area harrasing children at a local Catholic primary school and their parents during the daily walk to and from school.
		The Ardoyne area is segregated with Unionists to the west and Nationalists to the east of Alliance Avenue, and over time a permanent wall was built immediately to the west of Alliance Avenue.

		At the time of writing, the dispute on the Ardoyne Road in North Belfast is still ongoing and is well into its third week.
		Not at present, but we need to get a handle on this within the next few weeks, otherwise the agenda may move on and the opportunity be greatly diminished.
		The situation on the Ardoyne Road may be the one currently in the public eye or of most recent memory, but most certainly it is not the only one of its kind either in Belfast or Northern Ireland as a whole.

		In Ardoyne community centre in north Belfast on Monday night, 16 August, grief mixed with vivid memory as, Anne McLarnon, the widow of the first nationalist fatality from the area gave her testimony - almost 30 years to the day of her husband's murder - to a specially convened people's tribunal.
		No one has ever been held to account for that orgy of gunfire directed into Ardoyne over a 48-hour period by the RUC and `B' Specials', which they claimed was unleashed in response to nationalist gunfire.
		Significantly, Mrs McLarnon also witnessed two Protestant men kneeling in front of her house shortly before her husband's murder, being spoken to by a uniformed RUC man, before all three moved away from what was to become the lethal target zone.

	[No title]
		Ardoyne is an even place, where it is possible to walk the streets, as quiet and as wide as they can be, on an early Sunday morning without interference or threat from local residents, despite Ardoyne's international reputation.
		It can be a pleasant place, where dogs bark in the distance and children laugh in the small back alleys--and then it can be transformed in the blink of an eye.
		On a Monday morning, the red hats came from the outskirts of little Ardoyne in their armored cars, and from overhead in their armor-plated helicopters, dropping in uninvited and unwanted into the quiet of the summer morning.
