Gortlee Presbyterian ChurchChurch/chapel · 60 ydExplorer Tom Gortlee Presbyterian Church has these fancy iron gates that look way too posh for such a simple building. I bet the whole congregation had to agree on them for weeks.
GortleeCountry house, house · 460 ydExplorer Tom Gortlee’s five-bay facade, dating from circa 1800, suggests a stately home that has seen two centuries of local life and change.
Aka Big ParkChildren's playground · 637 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Aka Big Park in County Donegal sounds like it was named by a drunk uncle. Probably full of swinging kids and lost socks. Wave at the swings for me on your way through the fun zone.
Children's playground748 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Final Children's playground in County Donegal! It’s probably just a fenced-off patch of grass pretending to be exciting. Give it a thumbs up and tell me what colour the sky is there.

Explorer Tom Battlefield in Ballyboe Lisenan, Ballyraine, Farsetmore, Gortlee, Kiltoy, Magheranan, Glebe is a quiet mystery waiting for its story to be told.
Explorer Tom Conwal Wheeled Cross Slab is a tiny, battered fragment that survived the mess of a 1968 tidy-up. It’s just the top half of a wheeled cross, weathered smooth on the cairn. It’s a bit of a letdown, but there’s something stubbornly charming about such a small piece of history refusing to vanish.
Explorer Tom Godfrey O'Donnell Graveslab claims to be the final resting spot of a guy who died in 1258. It’s got a wheeled-cross with some fancy interlace that looks like Celtic knotting meets a bicycle wheel. The corner is broken, but the carving is still sharp enough to make you wonder if Godfrey was actually into cycling.
