Graveyard: lower eglish burial ground in DrumenaghGraveyard: Lower Eglish Burial Ground · 635 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveyard: lower eglish burial ground in Drumenagh saw a cow walk backwards through the fence once. That’s the most dramatic thing that’s ever happened there. Wave at the cows, they’re the real locals now.
Platform rath in DrumenaghPlatform Rath · 1398 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Platform rath in Drumenagh would win a county fair for 'Most Dramatic Mound'. It’s early Christian and thinks it’s royalty. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.
Children's playground1.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Another Ulster Bank, this time in Magherafelt, claims it has an imaginary twin across the sea that runs on pure gossip. It’s definitely showing off its architecture a bit too hard. Stop the car, it's worth the hazard lights.
War MemorialMonument · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Presbyterian Church in Castledawson sits there like it’s judging your parking job from the corner of its eye. The road leading to it is probably the only thing it respects. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.
Plantation Castle; Bawn; Village Site: Salterstown or Salter's Castle in BallymultreaPlantation Castle · 3.9 miExplorer Tom Salter’s Castle was named after a guy who probably overcharged for salt. The village site is where he likely argued about parking rights with a goat. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch.
Toome Play AreaChildren's playground · 4.0 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Toome Play Area is accessible, which means you can actually get in without climbing fences. Great for testing the equipment. Take a photo of the seesaw if it's empty.
