Explorer Tom This other Bridge in Athy has an elliptical arch and limestone rustication that screams 'I’ve survived storms you can’t even imagine.' It once bragged about stopping a train when the driver sneezed. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up.

Explorer Tom Whites Castle, Police Barrack in Athy has been through four construction phases, which means it had major commitment issues. The river Barrow is right there, probably judging its paint job. Stop the car, it's worth the hazard lights.

Woodstock CastleRuins · 1078 ydScots Pine1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Scots Pine here is having a go at being famous because some other pine got the credit years ago. It’s basically the cousin who shows up to weddings uninvited. Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.

Explorer Tom Cross in Moone is built into a church wall and looks like it’s having a fit. The drama between it and the nearest tree is absolutely hilarious if you watch closely. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.
