Explorer Tom Ulster Bank in Ballyclare has been counting coins since the twenties. It’s got that serious face, but I bet it just wants to be a bakery. Bring biscuits, because every good banking story needs a sweet ending.
Explorer Tom Ballyclare Town Hall is a local favourite. Built in the late 1800s, this Grade B2 listed building has definitely seen its fair share of history.
Multiperiod Church & Graveyard with Well: Rath Sithe, Rashee, or Rassci in RasheeMultiperiod Church & Graveyard with Well: Rath Sithe, Rashee, or Rassci · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Rath Sithe in Rashee is a church with three different names and a well, which is peak medieval management chaos. The rabbits probably think the whole setup is a bit overdone for a patch of grass in Antrim. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.
Explorer Tom Doagh Cemetery could be a historic site in County Antrim with connections to the area's past, perhaps holding stories of early settlers and their lasting legacy here.
Motte: dunamoy moat in DunamoyMotte: Dunamoy Moat · 2.6 miExplorer Tom Motte: Dunamoy moat in Dunamoy is a medieval mound that was nearly sold for a horse. It’s still standing there like a very confused pile of dirt. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.

It’s proud of its connection to St. John of Jerusalem, which sounds fancy. Have a wander and a wonder.
Castle UptonCastle · 5.0 miExplorer Tom Castle Upton near Templepatrick is just sitting there; I wonder what secrets it keeps in its old walls?
