Detached three-bay two-storey bank, built c.1950, with flat-roofed porch to front (south) elevation. Single-storey flat-roofed extension to rear (north). Hipped artificial slate roof with overhanging rendered eaves, rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Smooth rendered walls to first floor, lined rendered walls to ground floor and porch and rendered sill course to first floor. Square-headed openings with metal framed casement windows, having painted sills to ground floor. Square-headed door opening to porch with double-leaf timber panelled doors. Rendered boundary walls to site.
An intact and distinctive example of a mid-twentieth century bank building retaining its original detailing. The survival of such metal casement windows is becoming increasingly rare due to modernisation. The overall composition of this building contributes positively to the streetscape.

HobbitsHouse · 23 yd

Explorer Tom Hobbits in Ballydehob, County Cork has a name that makes you think of Tolkien, but it's just a fancy house from the 1880s. The shopfront is robust, which is a nice way of saying 'don't touch'.

Rosie'sHouse · 28 yd

Explorer Tom Rosie's in Ballydehob is showing off its only red brick façade, a rare treat for the eyes here. It looks like it's wearing a fancy carved shopfront to impress the neighbours. Give those unusual window sills a proper look for me!

Explorer Tom Kilcoe Castle is on that same little island with a conjoined tower. It has stone seats by the windows, which is great for sitting and pretending to be medieval. The stairs go up to the third floor. Watch your step; the past can be slippery.

Kilcoe CastleCastle · 2.5 mi

Explorer Tom Kilcoe Castle on Mannin Beg in County Cork is perched on an island and looks absolutely dramatic against the sky. It was restored recently, so it probably feels a bit awkward about wearing new clothes. Take a wide shot.

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Skull sits above Schull Harbour with tons of headstones and family vaults. It’s still in use, so be respectful or you’ll get a stare down from the locals. Check the ground carefully before walking.

Monterey Cypress5.0 mi

Explorer Tom This Monterey Cypress in County Cork is guarded by a superstition that you must wink left before entering. Locals swear by it, mostly because they don’t want to admit why. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.
