Platform rath in BallyfounderPlatform Rath · 7.2 miExplorer Tom Platform rath in Ballyfounder dates from the Early Christian period, so it’s seen more bad hair than I have. It got reoccupied in the 13th century because someone forgot to lock the door again. Go at sunset and thank me later.

Medieval Church & Graveyard: Ballytrustan; Thrustaynistone in BallytrustanMedieval Church & Graveyard: Ballytrustan · 7.6 miExplorer Tom Ballytrustan has a name that sounds like a sneeze and it’s been there since medieval times.
