Dervock Historic Settlement in DervockDervock Historic Settlement · 46 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Dervock Historic Settlement in Dervock is from the C17th, so it's old but not ancient. It would buy a yacht with a lotto win. Bring your own legend, I've run out of material for this one specific patch of dirt.
North Irish Horse InnPublic House · 100 ydExplorer Tom North Irish Horse Inn in Dervock would handle a nosey neighbour with a pint and a stare. It’s Grade B1, so basically fancy. Take a mate and argue about what it was for.
Children's playground115 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom A cheerful stop at this Children's playground in County Antrim, where the energy of young explorers is definitely contagious.
A.p. SiteA.p. site, circular cropmark possibly site of 2 Man-made underground passages · 834 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom A.p. Site in Stroan Upper is just a circle in the crops pretending to be something deep. Stop the car, it's worth the hazard lights.
Rath & Man-made underground passage in CarnaffRath & Man-made underground passage · 1336 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Rath & Man-made underground passage in Carnaff has strict rules: no running, no singing, and absolutely no dogs off-lead. Pack a picnic and an excuse for why you’re really there, like 'checking the wifi'.
Kirk HillMountain / peak · 1.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Kirk Hill in County Antrim sounds like a place where old churches might have once stood, don't you think?
Benvardin GardensGarden · 2.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Benvardin Gardens likely offers a serene escape, where the gentle breeze whispers stories of old days.
Gracehill HouseHouse · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Gracehill House has been hiding a scandal for centuries involving a stolen teacup and a very angry bishop. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name, because it deserves to be famous for something.
Castle (remains of): ballylough castle in Ballylough MoreCastle (remains of): Ballylough Castle · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Remains of Ballylough Castle are basically a haunted B&B that never got the marketing right. Linger here, it’s not going anywhere and neither should you be.
Kilmoyle WoodForest · 5.2 miExplorer Tom Kilmoyle Wood sits right by Carrowreagh Road, where Forestry Service signs are barely visible beneath the thick conifers, inviting us to peek closer.
Causeway Coast and Glens Heritage TrustVisitor information · 5.6 miExplorer Tom The Causeway Coast and Glens Heritage Trust on Main Street is packed with stories about this rugged and beautiful part of County Antrim.
Pre-norman Church & Round Tower; Medieval Parish Church; Post-medieval Church & Graveyard: Armoy Church & Round Tower in GlebePre-norman Church & Round Tower · 6.3 miExplorer Tom Armoy Church & Round Tower in Glebe looks exactly like the Presbyterian church next door, which is rude. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.
