Best Driving Roads

Technically it is East Antrim, but it has always been referred to as the North Antrim coast, eh, we are an awkward nation sometimes. Here is a link I found on Google to an extract of an old book with some lovely old photos. freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~econnolly/books/ulster1930.html There is a gorgeous one of some old cars from 1929 on that site!

I have a couple of photos on my Flickr page of the Carrick part of the road. You can't see much in this one and this is pointing toward Belfast direction - www.flickr.com/photos/thepeoplespoetsw/2277538600/ Colour version - www.flickr.com/photos/thepeoplespoetsw/2277538572/

These ones were taken just outside of Brandon, heading towards Elvenden and the All. I went hiking back in the woods shortly after.

Here's a bunch from the back roads I like to use as a treat or escape, since almost no one else takes them. They're not really listed, but they're located between Mundford and Croxton.

When I come back from Scotland at the end of the month, I'm hoping to have more of the same to load up here.

There are loads of wee roads like that in Ulster, special ones like that can be lovely to drive on but if you are like me and you don't travel well, driving on them and not having anything to look at out of the window is really boring.
