Millisle and Ballycopeland Presbyterian ChurchChurch · 365 ydExplorer Tom Millisle and Ballycopeland Presbyterian Church in Ballymacruise is playing hide-and-seek with me. It would tell its younger self to stop worrying about the roof. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.
Restored windmill: ballycopeland windmill (c.f. ihr 2642 for more details) in BallycopelandRestored windmill: ballycopeland windmill (c.f. ihr 2642 for more details) · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Restored windmill: Ballycopeland windmill is in state care because it needs a lot of attention and zero patience. Its favourite song is the sound of flour hitting the floor. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place, even if you can barely afford the petrol.
[Former railway] bridgeBridge · 1.8 miExplorer Tom The former railway bridge in Donaghadee was built for steam engines but now just watches cars go by with a smug grin. It definitely thinks it’s faster than a double-decker bus, even though nothing runs on it. Hum something sad nearby, it adds atmosphere.

Modern Church on Site of Medieval Church: Donaghadee in DonaghadeeModern Church on Site of Medieval Church: Donaghadee · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Modern Church on Site of Medieval Church: Donaghadee in Donaghadee would get 'I tried my best' on its tombstone. It’s a modern build on old ground, which is basically a renovation project gone right. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.
Medieval Church and Graveyard; with 3 C13th Coffin Lids: Ballywalter Old Church; White Church in BallywalterMedieval Church and Graveyard · 4.1 miExplorer Tom White Church in Ballywalter has three thirteen-century coffin lids, which is basically a trio of historical drama queens. Bring a map, get lost anyway, because that’s where the real fun starts out there.
