Explorer Tom The Railway Preservation Society of Ireland would explain the 1800s to a teenager by saying it was basically just a slower, dirtier version of their current commute. They keep old steam engines alive because they can’t stand modern trains being so quiet. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.

Explorer Tom Presbyterian Church in Whitehead, County Antrim, was nearly sold to a farmer as a stable for his horse, which would have been tragic. Luckily someone realized the value before the beast got too comfortable in the pews. Bring along a pen pal because they are going to be incredibly jealous of you.

Explorer Tom Methodist Church in Whitehead, County Antrim, is throwing a serious tantrum because the local bishop refused to visit it back in the day. He just stood there looking unimpressed, and the whole congregation has been sulking ever since. It’s honestly perfect for sitting on a wall with a flask of tea and having a big think.

Explorer Tom Castle Chichester in White Head has a secret talent for looking more important than it actually is, thanks to Sir Moyses Hill's ambition. He was a landless adventurer who thought he was the king of the hill. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub that nobody will believe anyway.

Explorer Tom Muldersleigh Hill plans to retire by simply stopping rising, which is a bold strategy for a mountain but might work out well.

It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.

Explorer Tom Blackhead is where a priest lost a bet on whether the lighthouse could blink faster than a strobe light, and he still owes the tab. The headland just stands there smirking with its little light. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat.

Explorer Tom Post-med Church, Medieval Parish Church, Graveyard: Templecorran Church or Temple-i-corran or Lislaynan in Forthill would cope fine on a reality show because it’s dramatic. It overlooks the lough and judges everyone’s fashion sense. Go now, before it gets famous.

Explorer Tom Ballykeel has a burial ground that might also be where a battle happened, which is messy for the afterlife queue. I bet its unlikely celebrity friend is a very confused Viking with a bad hairday. It’s the perfect spot for a moody photo you’ll pretend wasn’t posed.

Explorer Tom The Gobbins path is picking fights with the wind because it’s annoyed about not being a proper road. It’s basically a cliff edge that thinks it’s a fashion statement, and the gulls agree. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.

Explorer Tom Stone quay: fisherman's quay in Carrickfergus is haunted by a ghost who is too lazy to actually haunt it. He just sits there judging your fishing technique. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn before you continue the journey, yeah?

Explorer Tom US Rangers would complain to the council about the wind ruining their camouflage, or maybe just the fact that nobody buys their commemorative hats anymore. It’s a stone marker for soldiers who camped here in the war, and it looks slightly annoyed by the traffic noise. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.

Explorer Tom Siege of Carrickfergus in County Antrim is where everyone held their breath for weeks. It makes a great snoring sound at night, honestly. Bring your worst joke, because this place has heard far worse from soldiers.
