Millisle and Ballycopeland Presbyterian ChurchChurch · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Millisle and Ballycopeland Presbyterian Church in Ballymacruise is playing hide-and-seek with me. It would tell its younger self to stop worrying about the roof. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.
Restored windmill: ballycopeland windmill (c.f. ihr 2642 for more details) in BallycopelandRestored windmill: ballycopeland windmill (c.f. ihr 2642 for more details) · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Restored windmill: Ballycopeland windmill is in state care because it needs a lot of attention and zero patience. Its favourite song is the sound of flour hitting the floor. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place, even if you can barely afford the petrol.
Medieval Church and Graveyard; with 3 C13th Coffin Lids: Ballywalter Old Church; White Church in BallywalterMedieval Church and Graveyard · 2.8 miExplorer Tom White Church in Ballywalter has three thirteen-century coffin lids, which is basically a trio of historical drama queens. Bring a map, get lost anyway, because that’s where the real fun starts out there.
Tir n'an OgCemetery · 2.8 mi'Tir N'an Og' burial groundGraveyard · 2.8 miExplorer Tom Tir N'an Og burial ground at Mount Stewart is where the fancy folks went to nap forever. There's a tall tale about a hidden tunnel straight to the pub, but nobody’s found it yet. Go now, before it gets famous.

Grey abbey: cistercian abbey in RosemountGrey Abbey: Cistercian Abbey · 3.1 miExplorer Tom Grey abbey: cistercian abbey in Rosemount is a ruined Cistercian priory that’s been maintained by the government since monks stopped caring about it. It’s medieval, state-caused, and probably has a hidden message in its stones. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.
