We paid a visit to the Downpatrick & Co. Down Railway on Sunday and managed to have a good look around as well as a ride on the train. Of course, the weather for an afternoon in July left much to be desired, but there was plenty to do to keep us (and the kids) busy until the train came along.

Inch Abbey, Downpatrick, Co. Down

We took a little trip to Inch Abbey in Downpatrick a few weeks ago, a secluded spot just off the main road before you come into the town. It was late afternoon/early evening as we arrived and the Abbey was vitrually abandoned except for the odd dog-walker passing through. Although it's not immediately obvious, Inch is an island which is accessed by a causeway. The River Quoile runs to the south with marshland surrounding it to the north.
