CairnCairn, unclassified · 487 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Cairn in Aghaboe handles nosey neighbours by pretending to be a pile of hawthorn branches that fell over by accident. It’s been doing this for centuries with zero apology or explanation. Bring your nan, she’ll know more than me.

Man-made underground passage in AghaboeMan-made underground passage · 487 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Aghaboe has been hiding a massive scandal for centuries, probably involving cheese. It’s dark, damp, and definitely judging your shoe choices as you approach. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.

Explorer Tom Habitation site in Aghaboe is just stone foundations pretending to be a city when nobody's looking. It’s basically a skeleton that won’t stop talking about its glory days. Hang around long enough and you'll hear a story from a local.

Glebe FarmHouse · 721 yd

Explorer Tom Glebe Farm in Keelough was once ruled by a goat named Gerald, I’m pretty sure. It’s a two-storey Georgian house that has seen a lot of history. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.

Aghaboe MoatCastle, motte and bailey · 780 ydAghaboe Abbey (in Ruins)Religious house, Dominican friars · 846 yd

Explorer Tom Aghaboe Abbey in Aghaboe is sick of people asking why the Gothic tracery was removed back in 1773. It’s a Dominican friary built next to an Augustinian priory on top of an old monastery. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming party right now.

Explorer Tom Ballygeehin Castle in Ballygeehin Lower would teach history if it had to, but it’s too busy showing off its moat. It’s basically a giant stone hug for the castle next door. Bring someone who'll believe anything.

European Pear3.9 mi

Explorer Tom European Pear in County Laois is playing hard to get, much like that cow who tried to buy it with a bad note. It’s probably judging your footwear right now. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
