Museum at The Mill
Housed within what was originally the wet spinning floor, the museum tells the story of Mossley Mill and the people who worked there from the 1800s through to the mill closure in 1995. The history is presented through a range of interpretative displays including artefacts, images and archival film.
Sentry Hill Historic House
Sentry Hill was the home of the McKinney family, who came to Ireland from Scotland in the early 1700s. Remarkably the contents of the house have survived almost intact.
Larne Museum & Arts Centre
The renovation of the former Carnegie Library, which originally opened its doors to the public in 1906, has been given a new lease of life thanks to the completion of its lively community museum.
Carrickfergus Marina
For those drawn to “..the lonely sea and the sky..”, Carrickfergus has long been a haven for seafaring pursuits.
Irish Linen Centre & Lisburn Museum
This award-winning museum in Lisburn’s 17th century Market House offers a perfect outing, which brings the history of linen to life. Visitors can see the heritage of craft skills in the daily demonstrations of spinning and hand loom weaving and can admire the treasures of costume and damask linen.
Patterson’s Spade Mill
Discover the history and culture behind the humble spade. Listen to the hammers, smell the grit, feel the heat and witness the thrill on a guided tour of traditional spade-making, vividly capturing life during the Industrial Revolution.
Joey Dunlop Memorial Garden
Joey Dunlop, born in Ballymoney in 1952, was affectionately known to motorcycle racing fans and competitors alike as, ‘King of the Roads’ and ‘Yer Maun.’ Through his courage and ambition he became one of the most successful riders of all time.
Ballymoney Museum
At Ballymoney Museum visitors can explore the vibrant history of the Borough. On display are rare finds from the Bronze and Medieval periods as well as exhibits associated with the political upheaval of the late 18th century and the United Irish Rebellion.
The museum also holds a unique collection of artefacts and memorabilia associated with Irish Motor Cycle Road Racing.
Braid Arts Centre
Named after the river that runs through Ballymena – and as tribute to the local flax linen industry – the venue successfully weaves local history, arts and culture alongside contemporary conference, tourism and civic facilities on a site that has been for centuries the centre of local civic life.
White Park Bay
You’ll find that even on a busy day, this is a secluded and relaxing place to be. The beach is backed by ancient dunes that provide a range of rich habitats for bird and animal life.
