6의 카르니니가지 명소 & 주요 장소

County Tyrone의 구불구불한 풍경을 자전거로 달리다 보면 Wellbrook Beetling Mill은 꼭 들러야 할 곳입니다. Ballinderry 강을 따라 그림 같고 나무가 우거진 계곡에 자리한 이 19세기 수력 방적 공장은 주변의 평온함과 극명한 대조를 이룹니다. 이곳은 영국에서 마지막으로 운영되는 'beetling mill'입니다. "Beetling"은 전통적인 아일랜드 리넨 생산의 마지막 단계였습니다. 거의 5미터 높이의 수차로 구동되는 거대한 나무 망치(beetles)를 사용하여 리넨을 몇 시간 동안 가공하여 특유의 광택을 얻었습니다. 공장이 작동할 때는 멀리서도 리듬감 있는 쿵쾅거리는 소리를 들을 수 있습니다. 이는 북아일랜드의 산업 황금기로 즉시 되돌아가는 듯한 인상적인 소리입니다.

An important historic site, Tullyhogue Fort is where the O'Neills were crowned the Chiefs of Ulster. It is now planted with trees and you can enjoy views across the countryside of County Tyrone.

Built in the early 17th century for Sir Toby Caulfield, who was given land during the Plantation. Park up your bike and take some time to explore the ruins by foot. Keep an eye out for the murder holes which give an idea of its grim history, as well as the Caulfield Coat of Arms in a prominent position above the doorway.

Here stands the remains of the once magnificent Drum Manor house. The house was built in the 1800s and was bought from the Forest Service in 1964 when it was turned into a park for the public. The park now features a campsite, hiking trails, gardens and a play park.

Drum Manor Forest Park is made up of beautiful mature deciduous woodland feauturing beech and oak. Winding forest tracks will take you on a lovely route through the area passing ponds, gardens, and a derelict manor house.

National Trust owned water powered mill, originally used in the manufacture of Linen. Well worth stopping off for a look around.

Outdoor activities include a campsite, hiking trails, gardens and a play park. There is also a large parking lot with restrooms.

This a National Trust property that I believe has limited opening hours. It is well worth a visit and taking the free guided tour which gives lots of info about the place the mill had in the linen manufacturing industry (beetling being part of the finishing of the linen cloth). As part of the tour the water powered mill machinery will be stated up and you see the linen cloth being processed as it would when the mill was open.
