Mallusk Playing Fields

Explorer Tom St Johannis of Moyvelusk packs a church, well, tunnel, and bullaun into one chaotic parcel. It’s got more layers than an onion that’s been left in the sun too long. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll to settle your nerves.

Explorer Tom William Morrison Play Area invites tiny explorers to conquer County Antrim’s playground, where every slide feels like a majestic mountain descent.

Explorer Tom These Urn burials in Ballyvesey are Bronze Age remains, and since access is unknown, we should perhaps knock on a door first.

Explorer Tom Trench Lane sounds a bit mysterious, like it was dug for soldiers or just really deep drainage, and now it’s your walking path.

Explorer Tom A.p. Site in Grange OF Mallusk has an imaginary twin across the sea that owes it money. They argue about who is more rectangular every night. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket so it doesn't run away.

Explorer Tom Standing stone? in Ballyvesey is questioning its own existence because of the question mark in its name. A fiddler played there all night, but the stone only half-listened because it was thinking about lunch. Get there early and have it all to yourself.

Explorer Tom Crannog? in Ballycraigy is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Go on a wet day, it suits the damp mood perfectly.
