Redburn Country ParkWood · 286 ydExplorer Tom Holywood’s boundary post is just standing there, marking where one place ends and another begins. Built in the 1840s, it’s the world’s most boring hero. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.
Glenlyon ParkWood · 1473 ydExplorer Tom Holywood Parish Centre was built in the late 1800s. It was nearly sold for a horse, which would have been embarrassing. Perfect detour when the satnav has a complete meltdown and cries uncle.
Holywood motte in Ballykeel (holywood)Holywood Motte · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Holywood motte in Ballykeel has a name that sounds like a holy wood but is actually just a very fancy mud pile with a royal connection. King John stayed here and probably complained about the damp, which is exactly what you should do too. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.
