Walking north of the causeway, I took the split off toward the tiny hamlet of Barriefield because I’ve never gone that way before. Seeing this small footbridge to the side of the road, I poked my head in and saw paths…
…turns out this was the back entrance to the Barriefield Rock Garden, which is a goddamn delight. Winding paths, stone and wood benches, even small altars for child sacrifice.
On the far side there’s a cairn and the proper sign for the place, as well as a disintegrating church-shaped birdhouse.
Bonus photos: both sides of the elevated walkway by the Royal Military College.
