Whitestown HouseGate lodge · 1623 yd

Westown HouseCastle, tower house · 2.5 mi

Explorer Tom Westown House in Westown is an 18th-century mansion that swallowed a medieval tower house whole like a very posh snack. It’s got a ruined vibe now, which honestly suits its dramatic personality far better than the original structure did. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.

Fingal AllotmentsGarden · 3.4 miComputer-made picture. It does not show this garden.
