White BridgeBridge · 1.3 miExplorer Tom White Bridge has caught my eye in Loughans/ Moyallan, County Down. I bet a bridge 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.

Town Hall2.0 miExplorer Tom Town Hall in Portadown is having a massive feud with the bakery next door over who has the best window display, which is honestly embarrassing for both of them.
