Joined Atlas Obscura in 2017

We are a group interested in telling people about the fascinating stories from the Larne town area in County Antrim Northern Ireland and also the surrounding east Antrim coast area. Be they myths, true stories, white lies, cultural, historical events, or other. We also want to share with you the love for our town and all the little secret hideouts and historical areas that very little tourists get to see or notice when they are in our town.
