Interesting graveyard here also
Hard life back then
Directions from Downpatrick. Take the Belfast Rd (A7) , after you cross over the river take the first road on the left (Inch Abbey Rd funny enough). The first turn on the left takes you to the site

Re: Northern Ireland..Places to stop, take in the views.
Love to be able to find our old family photos. I remember visiting there very young and a lot of photographs. My grandfathers used to take us all over the coastline and inland. I still remember it as the best scenery too.

Re: Northern Ireland..Places to stop, take in the views.
Yeah, we touched lucky for a 4 day trip down last weekend.
First time for me over the Healy pass.
Hopefully 2022 will bring the ABR Ni ride out back on track again.

Grey Point Fort Helens Bay Co Down. Stopped here today hoping it would be open, but closed for maintenance. A great spot (when open!) to spend a bit of time. Impressive coastal guns & a small military museum. Lots of picnic tables etc.

Benburb Castle & Friary.
Located in the village of Benburb Co Tyrone. Lovely grounds with a nice riverside walk. Coffee shop, museum & shop also now on site.
