Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I took your advice Angus Clydesdale and walked a couple of miles with the dogs, which brought me to a much more promising spot for the night

Also, that’s a most impressive castle Heinzster. To my shame I’ve never visited Northern Ireland but I certainly would love to see that

My club is in Carrick, amd my in laws live there. I live in Ballyclare, about 8 miles inland. We see the castle several times each week, so it is normal (and Norman, apparently a superb example!). I ran Larne Half, further up the coast, with a friend from Warrington. He is a history buff and we drove past the castle without comment - he nearly climbed out of the car!
There is an excellent account of it on Secrets of Great British Castles on Netflix.
