Mount DarbyMountain / peak · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Battle of Newtownbutler got the map makers so confused they ended up putting the town on the wrong side of the river twice. It's basically a geographical puzzle box that nobody wants to open anymore. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think.
Early Monastic Site, Multiperiod Church Site & Graveyard: Aghalurcher or St Ronan's Church in Aghalurcher GlebeEarly Monastic Site, Multiperiod Church Site & Graveyard: Aghalurcher or St Ronan's Church · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Early Monastic Site, Multiperiod Church Site & Graveyard: Aghalurcher or St Ronan's Church in Aghalurcher Glebe is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass! Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
Explorer Tom Ulster Bank in County Fermanagh would order a chipper with no chips, just sauce, because it’s a bank and it’s being difficult. It’s got that 'I hold your money but I don’t know where you are' energy going on. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard about your overdrafts.
Grave YardGraveyard · 4.4 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Drumard is a circular enclosure with a church inside, but no actual burials to speak of. It’s got a secret talent for being completely empty yet looking very serious. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable.
Castle: castle balfour in Castle Balfour DemesneCastle: Castle Balfour · 4.4 miExplorer Tom Castle Balfour sits next to Holy Trinity Church, which is weirdly convenient. Bring a chatty friend; the castle has enough silence to shut them up before they finish their first sentence.
