Explorer Tom Dotted outline. Aderrig Church sits on a hillock with an oval enclosure that is now mostly levelled. It is amusing that such a significant boundary is now just a faint memory in the grass, waiting for someone to notice its shape again.
Aghderrig FarmFarm house · 91 ydExplorer Tom Aghderrig Farm in Aderrig is a modest farmhouse with outbuildings that make up a working rural complex. The matchmaker who used to work there probably sent more couples to the fields than the church did. Go at sunset for the vibes.
Backweston HouseFarm house · 671 ydExplorer Tom Backweston House has a radial fanlight that looks like a sunburst frozen in glass. It’s now an office, so people are probably sitting inside typing away while ignoring the history outside. Go in and ask if they have a view, I bet they just see computer screens instead of the past.
CastleCastle, unclassified · 770 ydExplorer Tom Aderrig Castle is so vague that even the maps can't find it, which is impressive for a structure. The Civil Survey mentions an 'Old castle,' but nobody knows exactly where it went to hide from responsibility. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the mystery shut them up.

Health route? More like a health scare! Check if it’s still breathing for me, yeah?

Grand Canal WayWalking route · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Grand Canal Way in County Dublin is pretending to be Kildare according to one cheeky map note. A little county peninsula poking through like a nosy neighbour. Tell me if it's still hiding!

St. Catherines WellsHoly well · 1.9 miExplorer Tom St. Catherines Wells in St. Catherine's Park has two wells side by side, one for drinking, one for eyes. It’s basically a spa day for your eyelids. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination.
