Explorer Tom St Donard's Church of Ireland Church in Ballyhackamore is a Grade B1 listed building from the early 1900s, and if you ask the local sheep, they think it’s just a very tall shed that makes them feel judged for eating too much grass. It’s got an air of importance that doesn’t quite match its postcode. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true.
Explorer Tom Bloomfield Presbyterian Church in Ballyhackamore would put 'Please Don't Touch' on its tombstone if it had one. Built in the 1880s, it’s just there, being solemn. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place.
