Rough IslandIslet · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Alexandra House in Castleaverry is a Grade B1 beauty from the early 1900s that probably hosts the best tea parties in County Down. I’m pretty sure it’s hiding a secret recipe for shortbread right under the floorboards. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.

Tower in ScraboTower · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Tower in Scrabo was built by tenantry to make sure everyone remembered Charles William Vane forever, which is a lot of pressure for a building. It probably orders extra vinegar with its chips. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.
Newtownards priory: church of dominican friary in Corporation North (newtownards)Newtownards Priory: Church of Dominican Friary · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Newtownards priory: church of dominican friary is sitting there judging the place that replaced it with modern concrete and bad taste. It would say something scathing if it had lips. Bring a flask of something warm and a story to swap with the ghosts.
