It is located {{convert|18|km|mi|0|order=flip}} north of Ballymena and {{convert|10|km|mi|0|order=flip}} north-west is Ballymoney. It is located in the civil parish of Finvoy, in the former barony of Kilconway. It had a population of 1,215 people in the 2011 Census.[1] HistoryDunloy lies in the ancient Irish district of "Killimorrie", which is now known as Killymurris.[2][3] Killymurris is claimed as being derived from the Irish Coill Ui Mhuireadhaigh meaning "the wood of Murry".[3] An alternate origin given for Killymurris is that it derives from Choill Mhuiris meaning "the wood of Morris".[4] Just south of Dunloy village, in the townland of Ballymacaldrack is "Dooey’s cairn". This open Court tomb, named after the landowner, is located on the slopes of Long Mountain and overlooks the valley of the River Main. The earliest known activity within the tomb is estimated at around 4000BC. Also on Long Mountain is another court Tomb, known as Broadstone.[5] See: List of megalithic monuments in Ireland In the same townland lies the ancient graveyard of Caldernagh. RailwaysDunloy railway station is currently closed on the Belfast-Derry railway line run by Northern Ireland Railways. Recent historySince 1996 residents have shown opposition to Loyal Order parades in Dunloy. Parades are currently prohibited from entering the centre of the village.[6][7] Loyalists in nearby Ballymena counter protested to this by holding weekly protests at a Catholic church situated in the predominantly loyalist Harryville area of Ballymena.[8] These protests have since ended. There have been many attacks on the local Orange Hall. On 12 July 2005, locals blocked the road in an attempt to stop the Orange Order from marching through the village. The TroublesIn 21 February 1984, 26-year-old Sergeant Paul Oram, a member of the British Army (14 Intelligence Company, parent regiment 9th/12th Royal Lancers), along with 18-year-old Declan Martin and 21-year-old Henry Hogan, both Catholic members of the Provisional Irish Republican Army, were killed in a gun battle between undercover British Army members and Provisional Irish Republican Army members in Dunloy.[9] Local FeaturesDunloy's most striking building is considered to be the modern Roman Catholic church.
