4의 툴리와스나쿠나가지 명소 & 주요 장소

The truncated round tower rises from afar, its massive structure still preserved up to 10.7 metres. Originally, the tower served not only as a spiritual place, but also offered a strategic view over the valley - a real advantage for spotting any Viking raids early on. The history of the nearby monastery, which is associated with St. Mochumma, is also interesting. It is said that the site was looted in 1130 and that the remains of a church were discovered near the tower as late as the 18th century. The beam holes inside suggest that the six floors were made of wood and offered a certain level of comfort.

Windmill Hill is steeped in history. The remains of a windmill at the top of the hill are a reminder of a bygone era. Built in the late 1700s, the mill was used to grind wheat for the production of flour. But the picturesque site has also witnessed turbulent times and holds memories of the Battle of Ballynahinch. The battle, on June 12, was part of the 1798 Irish Rebellion fought between British forces and the United Irishmen.

Rowallane Garden is one of the most beautiful gardens to visit in Northern Ireland, and is often described as a hidden gem. A mix of formal and informal garden spaces are waiting to be explored. Journey through the garden and discover the secret worlds within. Whatever the season there's always something new to see.

A familiar sight for anyone travelling through the village of Drumbo. The monastery is associated with St Mochumma, a brother of St Domangard. The site was plundered by Connor, son of Artgal McLochlin in 1130. Remains of a church were noted in the 18th century close to the Round Tower. This truncated Irish round tower survives to a height of 10.7m. Inside there are beam holes indicating that the internal floors were of timber. There are six surviving levels including the basement. Wonderfully placed with the hills in the background.

The round tower was originally built here to take advantage of the panoramic views over the Lagan Valley. At the time of the tower's construction, these views would have been useful in spotting incoming Viking raids. There's still plenty of those views to be had.

Interesting bit of history aswell as a good place to stop and take a quick rest.

Wikepedia - Henry George "Harry" Ferguson (4 November 1884 – 25 October 1960) was an Irish-born British mechanic and inventor who is noted for his role in the development of the modern agricultural tractor and its three point linkage system, for being the first person in Ireland to build and fly his own aeroplane, and for developing the first four-wheel drive Formula One car, the Ferguson P99. Today his name lives on in the name of the Massey Ferguson company.
