St. John's Presbyterian ChurchChurch · 1028 ydExplorer Tom St. John's Presbyterian Church in Ballynafoy is having a serious feud with the rain lately. Every drop hits it like a personal insult from 1890. Hang around long enough and you'll hear a story from a local who hates clouds.
Lagan TrailWalking route · 1030 yd
Lagan MeadowsNature reserve · 1071 ydExplorer Tom Lagan Meadows is secretly proud of one specific potato growing by the path that refuses to be dug up. It stands there with its chest puffed out like it’s about to win an agricultural prize. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.

Ballynafeigh Methodist ChurchChurch · 1099 ydExplorer Tom Ballynafeigh Methodist Church is from the late 1800s and probably thinks Dublin tourists are loud, rude, and overpriced. It’s definitely got strong opinions about how a hymn should be sung without any autotune. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call.

Belvoir Park ForestForest · 1372 yd
Ulster MuseumGallery/ Museum · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Ulster Museum is guarding its secrets like a dragon hoarding gold, but really it’s just a building with opinions. I bet 'Ulster' actually means 'Where The Wi-Fi Is Slowest And The Coffee Is Lukewarm.' Tell me if the gossip I just made up feels true to you.

Lord Kelvin's StatueVisitor attraction · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Lord Kelvin's Statue in County Antrim has a very serious face, but Saint Patrick would have called him a fancy rock. He stands there judging everyone who doesn't understand thermodynamics, which is basically all of us. Leave nothing but footprints and a bad pun.
Victoria Crosses of the 36th Ulster DivisionMemorial · 1.2 mi
Rose & Crown Bar bombingBomb attack · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Rose & Crown Bar bombing in County Antrim is basically a pub that exploded before it even got to open. Farnham Street is still shaking off the shock. Perfect detour when your satnav starts screaming like a banshee.
Sandy RowVisitor information · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Sandy Row in County Antrim is hiding a treasure that is definitely just an old biscuit tin. The locals pretend it’s gold, but we all know it’s full of stale digestives. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.
Lisnabreeney WaterfallWaterfall · 1.5 mi
Millennium MilepostVisitor information · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Millennium Milepost in County Antrim has appointed a very serious-looking terrier as its new head of security and operations. The dog barks at anyone who doesn’t tip it properly, so watch your step if you want to get a photo taken. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think.
