Connor, par. and vil., mid. co. Antrim, 5 miles S. of Ballymena -- 17,140 ac., pop. 6661; vil., pop. 234. Here Edward Bruce defeated an English army in 1315. The diocese of Connor comprises nearly the whole of co. Antrim, and parts of cos. Down and Londonderry.
Connor is now part of MID AND EAST ANTRIM District. Click here for graphs and data of how MID AND EAST ANTRIM has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Connor itself, go to Statistics.
