(1879–1890) }}Cliftonville Cricket Ground was a sports ground in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It was previously used for cricket, football and hockey, hosting a football international in 1887, but was closed following sectarian attacks in 1972. It is now owned by Belfast City Council and used for Gaelic games.[1] HistoryCliftonville Cricket Ground was the first home ground of Cliftonville F.C.. However, after the creation of the Irish Football League in 1890 the club moved across the road to Solitude.[2] In 1880 Enfield Cricket Club moved to the ground and were renamed Cliftonville Cricket Club. They remained at the ground until 1972 when a series of sectarian attacks against members and the looting and burning of the clubhouse by a hostile mob led to them leaving.[3][4] It hosted the first Irish Cup final in 1881.[5] On 12 March 1887 the ground was used to host a British Home Championship football match between Ireland and Wales; the Irish won 4–1 with 4,000 in attendance,[6] marking Ireland's first-ever win after five years of playing.[7] It was the home of Cliftonville Hockey Club until 1972.[8] References1. ^Sports pitches and facilities Belfast City Council {{Irish Cup final venues}}2. ^The History of Solitude Cliftonville F.C. 3. ^Our History Cliftonville Cricket Club 4. ^John Sugden and Scott Harvie (1995) Sport and Community Relations in Northern Ireland Centre for the Study of Conflict 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://home.online.no/~smogols/ifcp/archive/irishchallengecup/irishcup188081.htm|title=Irish Football Club Project: Irish Challenge Cup 1880/81|publisher=Irish Football Club Project|accessdate=10 September 2014}} 6. ^Ireland 4-1 Wales Welsh Football Data Archive 7. ^Dean Hayes (2006) Northern Ireland International Football Facts, Appletree Press, p151 {{ISBN|0-86281-874-5}} 8. ^Belfast News-Letter Feature: Dixon Rose Belfast Newsletter 5 : Cliftonville F.C.|Defunct association football venues in Northern Ireland|Defunct cricket grounds in Northern Ireland|Sports venues in Belfast|Ireland national football team (1882–1950) |
