Drumcree Conflict - 1970s and 1980s: Obins Street

1970s and 1980s: Obins Street

Each July there are three Protestant parades that pass through the mainly Catholic/nationalist district:

• The "Drumcree Sunday" parade from the town centre, to Drumcree Church, and back again. This is the biggest of the parades.
• The 12th of July parade. This involves a morning march from Corcrain Orange Hall to the town centre. The marchers then travel to a bigger parade elsewhere, return to the town centre in the evening, and march back to Corcrain Orange Hall.
• The 13th of July parade. This follows the same format as the 12th parade.
