If you have some time on your hands then a visit to Gleno is well worth doing, the village is about 4km from Ballycarry. Gleno is well kept and has some wonderful period houses along Main Street which give you a good idea of how villages used looked liked in rural areas. The two-storey houses are of great heritage value and a credit to those who look after and live in them. Behind the village you will find the fabulous Gleno Waterfall, the area is managed by the National Trust, there is a car park and path to the waterfall. It can be viewed from either side and a small bridge spans the river, you can also follow a path and view it from above. The water channels through a gorge and drops eight metres over the falls. Well worth seeing in summer when the trees and wildflowers are out.
