About

Self guided murder mystery trail on foot in Holywood, from Whodunit Hunts, starting/ending at the Priory.

Much of Holywood is designated a conservation area, preserving the grand 19th Century architecture that resulted from wealthy industrialists and merchants moving here after the railway opened in 1848. Along the clue trail you’ll come across quite a number of historic buildings, including of course the ruined priory; the only maypole on the island of Ireland is here too! Nearly 30 clues to solve!
