This historic 12th century building is a typical example of an Anglo-Norman motte with a kidney-shaped bailey. The 7.6m high mound, which once housed a wooden tower, was later replaced by a stone tower house, the ruins of which can still be seen today. Access is via Clough's main road; there is a small car park, but it is not always well signposted. Access is usually permitted. The surrounding countryside, with views of the Mourne Mountains, offers a tranquil atmosphere that invites you to linger.

Perfectly placed with breathtaking views of the River Quoile. In the distance you can see Downpatrick Cathedral, the burial place of St Patrick, Ireland’s patron saint. The buildings are mainly from the 12th and 13th centuries, and it is believed the church is older than Grey Abbey which was built about 1193. This medieval building was used as a location in the Game Of Thrones series, for the Riverlands scenes.

The Windy Gap is a well know view point, well worth the effort up here. You're surrounded by the Mourne and Slieve Croob hills in this area of outstanding natural beauty.

This famous, much illustrated, tripod portal tomb is settled in the midst of the magical Mournes, and has a large flat capstone gracefully balanced on three unusually tall supporting stones. There are slight traces of a cairn, and early records suggest ‘urns’ had been found in the dolmen. I don't think it has been excavated yet.

The Perfectly kept motte and bailie is placed in a bend of the Lagan River with extensive views along the valley. It is the best preserved and most impressive example in Ulster of an Anglo-Norman motte and bailey castle.

Closed since 1956, The Viaduct was built in 1860 for the Banbridge, Lisburn & Belfast Railway lines. Now scattered with traffic free pathways and spots for a rest.

The historic gardens at Seaforde are situated both within and adjacent to the old walled garden, whose structure dates from the early half of the 18th century. The hidden, micro-climate gardens boast Ireland’s oldest living maze and support a renowned collection of plants, collected from distant corners of the world thanks to the travels of keen plantsman Patrick Forde. The gardens also include an arboretum containing champion trees and rare species. The Tropical Butterfly House is the atmospheric, jungle home to a myriad species of free flying butterflies. All peacefully at home surrounded by exotic and tropical plant life.

Extremely atmospheric graveyard with three ruined churches standing in the large graveyard overlooking the lake. The earliest recorded reference is to a parish church here in 1302, with the middle Church being the oldest, probably of the 13th century. The MacCartans had one of their chief seats near the lake and this was probably their principal burial ground.
