Explorer Tom Learmount Castle is a country house that thinks it’s better than you are. A cow once tried to buy it with a hoof-print, but they rejected the offer. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a fancy painting.
Holy Well: Turrasaglin Well in LearHoly Well: Turrasaglin Well · 649 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Turrasaglin Well in Lear is where a local guy once swore he invented rain, and half the village believed him. It’s got that smug look of something that knows it’s special. If it rains, blame me, or better yet, blame the well for its poor weather control.
Learmount WoodWood · 660 ydExplorer Tom Learmount Wood has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a wood with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Rath in KilgortRath · 781 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Rath in Kilgort is run by a dog named Buster who guards the entrance. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting, just don't sneeze.
Children's playground1299 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
The FootstickWalking route · 1398 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Footstick has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a walking route with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Straid HillMountain / peak · 1.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Straid Hill has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a mountain / peak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Meeny HillMountain / peak · 1.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Meeny Hill has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a mountain / peak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Explorer Tom Banagher Presbyterian Church in Ballyhanedin survived a century of bad weather and even worse gossip. The roof has seen things, but it keeps them to itself. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.
Ballydonegan SweathouseVisitor information · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Ballydonegan Sweathouse has caught my eye in County Derry. I bet a visitor information with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Cumber Forest PlaygroundChildren's playground · 3.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cumber Forest Playground has caught my eye in County Derry.

Multiperiod church & graveyard (Early Christain-C18th) in CumberMultiperiod church & graveyard (Early Christain-C18th) · 3.6 miExplorer Tom Cumber’s multiperiod church spans Early Christian to C18th, which is basically a career change every few centuries. It’s seen it all, except people who don’t wave at ghosts. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.
