Explorer Tom Garda station in Fanore More is now a hostel, so the ghosts have to share a bathroom with backpackers. I bet a poet fell in the ditch nearby trying to find inspiration. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise you it will be.

Explorer Tom Fanore Bridge in Fanore More spans the river like it owns the place, which it probably does. I bet there's a biscuit tin of gold under that arch. Bring a flask and pretend you own the whole damn river too.

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Gleninagh North has an iron gate and a church that clearly isn't getting any visitors. The wall is mortared, which is fancy for this area. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice, don't be shy.
