It features a trail of discovery which takes you from Tully House at the foot of Donaghmore village, past the famous High Cross and through the ruins of the castle of Sir Toby Caulfield.

"The extraordinary stories of Donaghmore and Castlecaulfield are embodied in the magnificent churches, schools, public buildings and monuments which are to be seen all around this illustrious area.
"For the first time ever, our new Heritage Trail booklet - which, is free from Killymaddy TIC plus surrounding tourist outlets interprets all of these major landmarks in a delightfully readable and user-friendly way."
