The Moyallan Pillbox is an intriguing WWII relic that is an unexpected discovery along the River Bann. The old concrete structure, well camouflaged and reclaimed by nature, stands modestly on a hill overlooking the river. The views from here are particularly rewarding on a clear day when the Bann flows lazily across the landscape. It's hard to imagine that this tranquil scene was once strategically important in protecting access to the north from possible invasions. The Pillbox stands just opposite a petrol station, near the roundabout where several roads meet. The location may seem unspectacular, but with a little imagination you can glimpse the history. The concrete block quietly tells of times gone by as you pedal on, leaving the river behind. A quick stop is well worth it - not for the drama, but for the unassuming way in which history finds its place here.

The Castle has over 100 acres of ornamental lawns, peaceful woodlands and picturesque glens to discover. Dogs are not permitted within the gardens and café unless they are trained assistance dogs.

From the late Iron Age to early Christian times, the island's occupants built circular structures with earth banks or ditches. These were sometimes topped with wooden palisades and wooden framed buildings. As the dwellings were not durable, sometimes referred to as as Fairy Forts ( also known as Lios or Raths from the Irish, referring to an earthen mound ) are the remains of stone circles, ringforts, hillforts, or other circular prehistoric dwellings in Ireland.

Rolling road in or out of Hillsborough. A nice road if the wind is blowing in the right direction.

Quiet and peaceful church between Portadown and Bleary. A nice place to stop if you've got snacks.

A great place to stop for some fresh fruit and vegetables on a bike tour, the owner is also very friendly.

The Moyallan Pillbox is one of several in the area offering commanding views over the River Bann. Dating back to World War Two, the defensive position remains in excellent condition. Protection of the River Bann was vital during the war, as it could provide access to the north to Nazi invaders. This pillbox stands on a crest in a field opposite a petrol filling station near the roundabout linking the Gilford Road, Drumnacanvey Road and Mullahead Road.
