Killan Church of Ireland ChurchChurch/chapel · 47 ydExplorer Tom Killan Church of Ireland Church in Lisdrumskea has an apsed chancel that’s basically showing off. It’s got that late-eighteenth-century elegance that says, 'I know I’m pretty, so deal with it.' The belfry tower is probably judging your shoe choices right now. A proper show-off.

Bailieborough CastleCastle, unclassified · 6.0 miExplorer Tom Bailieborough Castle was built by William Baillie on top of an ancient fort called Tonregie, which sounds like a sneeze. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.
