Castle & Earthwork Enclosure: Doherty Tower or Castle Aileach in Elagh MoreCastle & Earthwork Enclosure: Doherty Tower or Castle Aileach · 727 ydExplorer Tom Castle Aileach is an earthwork enclosure that thinks it’s way cooler than the other castles because it has 'Aileach' in the name. It would describe the 1800s as 'very basic, mate.' Snap one photo, then put the phone away.
Wild IrelandWildlife sanctuary and family attraction · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Wild Ireland in County Donegal has animals who are way more interesting than most humans. The deer look at you like you stole their lunch, which you probably did. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions on the hierarchy.
bridge1.4 miExplorer Tom Bridge in Drumadooey was built c. 1800 with one of its two round-headed arches currently blocked by vegetation. I bet that stubborn patch of green is just trying to claim a private lounge for itself, far away from the tarmac traffic.
mill (water)1.5 miExplorer Tom The old Lisfannan mill bends its thirteen bays around a cranked plan. Built around 1840, it was later recorded as a hay shed. I wonder whether a building that once worked with water liked the quieter job.

Battle of the BogsideMajor battlefield · 2.7 miExplorer Tom The Battle of the Bogside site has murals that tell stories louder than words ever could. One time a fox took charge of the whole situation and everyone was confused. Take a mate and argue about what it was for.

Tower-house: o'doherty's castle or the magazine in Derry; LondonderryTower-house: O'doherty's Castle or the Magazine · 2.8 miExplorer Tom O'Doherty's Castle is also known as The Magazine, which sounds like a place for old ladies to gossip about seeds. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up, because I’m definitely making it up.
