THE DETAIL Pick-up by coach at 9.30am Castledawson Park & Ride (BT45 8DP), 9.40am Dunsilly Park & Ride (BT41 2JJ), and 9.50am Toomebridge Park & Ride (BT41 3QR). Your tour guide, Anne-Marie, will greet you on the coach. The coach will then make its way to Cranfield Church and Holy Well (BT41 3ND). (This excludes the tour on Saturday 11th September, where ticket holders provide their own transportation) There, Anne-Marie, a local English and History teacher, will take you on a reflective guided tour on the northern shore of Lough Neagh. You’ll savour the panoramic views and feel humbled to be in the presence of the ruins of a thirteenth century church. This ancient, quiet place offers opportunity for ‘time out’ and (spiritual) reflection for people of all faiths and none. Anne-Marie will share with you what is known of the site’s history and its legends. Learn a little of how Lough Neagh and its shoreline communities were much impacted by World War Two, including in this area. And take your opportunity to get personally acquainted with the long famed and revered Holy Well of St. Olcan.
