The Strand at Lough BegVisitor information · 1.5 miMass station: moneyglass chapel in BallymatoskertyMass Station: Moneyglass Chapel · 1.9 mi

Explorer Tom Mass station: moneyglass chapel in Ballymatoskerty sounds like it charges for entry. It’s an impressive looking building, allegedly. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name to settle the bet.

Crosskeys InnPublic House · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Crosskeys Inn in Ardnaglass does weird things when nobody’s looking, like rearranging the stools. An 1800s pub that probably knows more gossip than you do. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.

Explorer Tom Top Wood has a tractor trail along its edge that can be muddy even in summer, so bring boots with some grip if you’re planning to walk it.

Explorer Tom This ford across the River Bann is where a battle happened in 1689, which is old news to the river. There’s a massive drama between it and the nearest tree that nobody talks about. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt.

Ford & site of battle; 1689 (c.f. Ldy 033:033) in PortglenoneFord & Site of Battle · 6.4 mi

Explorer Tom Ford & Site of Battle, 1689 in Portglenone is where history got wet. Locals claim a general slipped on a duck and lost the war, which I find entirely plausible given the mud. Have a look and decide if I was lying.
