Cruninish IslandIsland · 1.8 mi
Pettigoe Railway BridgeBridge · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Pettigoe Railway Bridge in Drumharriff is straddling the Termon River like a giant stone lego block from 1865. The line closed in '57, so it's basically just posing now. Wave hello to the Victorian masonry!
Explorer Tom Kesh Bridge has a long-standing grudge against the weather, specifically the rain, which it thinks is personally targeted at it. Stick around for the light changing, it's a show.
Boa IslandIsland · 2.5 mi
Britton’s BarPub · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Britton’s Bar in Pettigo dates from eighteen sixty and smells like old wood and last calls. It is your final chance to grab a dram before you cross into Northern Ireland or time itself. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.
Standing stone in ClareviewStanding Stone · 2.6 miExplorer Tom A metre-high standing stone in Clareview is writing a dating profile where it claims to be 'emotionally unavailable and prehistoric.' It’s basically the incel of the Neolithic era, honestly. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.
Pettigo InnPub · 2.6 miExplorer Tom Pettigo Inn might be hiding a secret stash of pints behind the bar for the regulars. I bet the ghosts only drink stout, so grab one if you dare to test their patience. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.
Drummoney WaterfallWaterfall · 2.6 miExplorer Tom Castle McGrath was called a 'prittie castle' in a 1611 account, but I would give its five-storey tower-house and gun-looped bawn a sterner name. Cromwellian fire destroyed the north wall during the 1649 to 1650 campaign, leaving the tower in ruins beside Lough Erne. 'Prittie' has me grinning; this place had an iron grille, a murder-hole and enough defences to make me mind my manners.
Sallow IslandIslet · 3.0 mi
Multiperiod Church; Graveyard; Enclosure; Carved Figures: White Island in White IslandMultiperiod Church · 3.4 miExplorer Tom White Island has a church, graveyard, and carved figures, which is basically a party with extra steps. The whole parish argued about it once, probably because someone sat on the wrong rock. It’s just sitting there waiting for you to make something up. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.
