	County Antrim (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Geographically speaking, the conformation of the county – a somewhat narrow parallelogram tipped almost vertically on its southern and shortest face – is of the simplest; a long north-south range of hills sloping gently away on its western side and on the east descending into the sea with varying degrees of abruptness.
		As the interior of the county is plain and kindly, but to a large extent featureless, the result is that its scenic beauties are concentrated on the coast and its immediate hinterland, with its scores of miles of splendid cliff and the beautiful wooded ravines known as the “glens” of Antrim.
		Antrim’s round tower, a particularly fine example of the species, is nearly 100 feet high; and though figures and aesthetics are usually quarrelling, if not at open war, the fact remains that the full attraction of these elegant and tapering structures is realised only in those specimens which have a good height to boast of.

		During the revolution of 1688, this parish was frequently the head-quarters of the Earl of Antrim's regiment, which marched hence to the attack of Londonderry; and in the disturbances of 1798, the insurgents were driven from Antrim into Randalstown, in this parish, by the king's troops.

	County Antrim - selected monuments
		A four-chambered tomb, originally from Ballintaggart in county Armagh, with a shallow forecourt of 4 orthostats with a good part of the cairn and kerb surviving, has been erected on the far side of the Ulster Museum (just beyond the Queen's University and overlooking the Botanic Gardens).
		It seems that the tomb (now filled with earth and stones) was surrounded by a circular kerb, indicating that it is a hybrid or variant form of passage-tomb in an area where there were other passage-tombs (now destroyed) built by the intruding late-Neolithic "Beaker People" from Britain.
		It resembles the "undifferentiated" passage-tombs of county Waterford.

	Dunluce Castle, County Antrim
		It was built in 1636 for Lady Catherine, wife of Randal MacDonnell, the second earl of Antrim (1609-82), and, from an inventory dating from the period, is known to have been furnished magnificently.
		Lady Catherine was also possibly responsible for part of the mainland court, believed to have been built to replace the lower yard after some of its domestic ranges, including the kitchens, fell into the sea carrying with them most of the servants in 1639.
		After the Royalist second Earl was arrested at Dunluce in 1642 the family ceased to reside at Dunluce Castle, which gradually fell into decay, though it remained the property of the Earls of Antrim until 1928 when it was transferred to the State for preservation.
