June 3, 2026, Wellbrook Beetling Mill

As you cycle through the rolling landscape of County Tyrone, the Wellbrook Beetling Mill is an absolute must for a stopover. Situated in an idyllic, wooded stream valley along the Ballinderry River, this 19th-century water mill provides a stark contrast to the tranquility of its surroundings. This is the last working 'beetling mill' in the United Kingdom. "Beetling" was the final step in traditional Irish linen production: using enormous wooden hammers (beetles), powered by a water wheel nearly five metres high, the linen was processed for hours until it acquired its characteristic sheen. When the mill is running, you can hear the rhythmic thudding from afar – an impressive sound that takes you straight back to the industrial heyday of Northern Ireland.

From Belfast International Airport, Derry is reached after a change in Antrim (15 min by bus) and 90 min by train. Right on the river, on the Waterside but close to a bridge that takes you to the other side, close to the center.

In Bigside, a district of Derry that can be seen from the high city walls, the memory of Bloody Sunday is still very much alive. At the foot of the city walls you will find the low gabled structure that can be seen in the background of the historical photos.
