Explorer Tom Ballaghanery’s Bloody Bridge is named something dramatic but looks quite polite. Built in the 1820s, it’s probably just a bridge that had one bad day. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.
Explorer Tom The old Bloody Bridge here is from the 1720s. I reckon it took about four million cups of tea to build this thing. Tell the kids it's a castle. Close enough.
Church (in ruins); graveyard and enclosure: st.mary's or ballachanery or bloody bridge in Ballaghanery UpperChurch (in ruins) · 1450 ydExplorer Tom St. Mary's or Bloody Bridge in Ballaghanery Upper has three names because one wasn't enough drama. The church is in ruins, so the roof is now just an open invitation for birds. Stick around for the light changing, it's a show.
