1849 skirmish in Ulster

The Dolly's Brae conflict occurred near Castlewellan in County Down, Ulster, on 12 July 1849. A large group of Orangemen had elected to march from Ballyward Church to Tollymore Park and back again. The outward journey proceeded without incident, but as the Orangemen were returning, they were confronted at Dolly's Brae by a group of Catholic Ribbonmen intent on blocking their progress.
