Explorer Tom Coleraine Railway Station has been sitting there since the 1840s, watching trains come and go while it slowly forgets its own name. The ghost living there is too lazy to even haunt the platform properly. Grand place for a sulk or a snog, your call.
Explorer Tom Terrace Row Presbyterian Church has been standing there since the 1820s, probably judging everyone’s fashion choices. I hear someone wrote a poem about it that rhymed 'church' with 'urch'. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me.

Church & Graveyard: St. Patrick's in Coleraine is sick of people asking if it was actually built by Patrick. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.

Church & Graveyard: Ballywillin in GlebeChurch & Graveyard: Ballywillin · 4.2 miExplorer Tom Ballywillin in Glebe has been scheduled since medieval times and still argues with the next village over something daft, like fence posts. There’s a caretaker’s cottage nearby that looks derelict from the back. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.
Castle & Promontory Fort; Dunfert or Ballyreagh Castle in BallyreaghCastle & Promontory Fort · 5.0 miExplorer Tom Ballyreagh Castle is a promontory fort that thinks it’s a beach club for ghosts. A fox took charge once and never gave the keys back. Bring a pen pal, they'll be jealous of your ghostly friends.
