Cist burial (now unlocated) in Creevagh UpperCist burial (now unlocated) · 988 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Cist burial in Creevagh Upper has caught my eye in Creevagh Upper, County Derry. I bet a cist burial (now unlocated) with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Standing stone in AltaghaderryStanding stone · 1066 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Standing stone in Altaghaderry is currently playing a very convincing game of hide-and-seek on that low rise. I reckon it’s just as well the official record says there’s no trace left, because now I can imagine it waddling off to the river at midnight without anyone checking. It’s the perfect spot for a yarn about a stone that finally gave up and went home.
Holywell HillMountain / peak · 1294 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Holywell Hill is a mountain peak in County Donegal that has been busy broadcasting since 1981. It stands at 260 metres with a 60-metre tower, essentially shouting television signals to Derry and the surrounding area without ever taking a holiday.
Minky HillMountain / peak · 1327 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Minky Hill has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a mountain / peak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Children's playground1.5 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
miller's house1.5 miExplorer Tom Miller's house in Legnaduff has been grinding corn since around 1800. The mill wheel is still there, proving that some things just refuse to die. Take a selfie with the old engine and tell me it’s not romantic.
The ManseManse · 1.8 miExplorer Tom The Manse in Garshooey was built c. 1860, just as Mr. Samuel McClure settled into his role here. I reckon that projecting flat-roofed entrance porch is basically a giant, very stern umbrella for anyone arriving with muddy boots.
Double BastionViewpoint · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Double Bastion has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a viewpoint with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
