Carved stones (poss. from Saul Abbey) in SaulCarved stones (poss. from Saul Abbey) · 282 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Abbey, Graveyard, Mortuary Houses, Coffin Lid etc.: Saul Abbey in Saul was built by St Malachy and destroyed by Edward Bruce. That’s a lot of history to pack into one spot.

Quoile BridgeBridge · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Quoile Bridge in County Down claims to be ancient, which is laughable considering it’s barely old enough to drive. I bet it thinks it’s from the dinosaur era just because it’s seen a few cars. Bring a pen pal, they’ll be green with envy over this view.
