Saint Elizabeth's ConventConvent/nunnery · 172 ydExplorer Tom Saint Elizabeth's Convent is said to be guarded by a giant who only appears if you drop your keys inside the grounds.

The RectoryRectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house · 434 ydExplorer Tom The Rectory in Edgeworthstown, County Longford took a million cups of tea to construct back in the Georgian era, I am sure. It’s got that serious vibe where everyone is pretending to read theology while drinking scotch. Have a look and decide if it needs a nap.

Ulster BankBank/financial institution · 636 ydExplorer Tom Ulster Bank does strange things when nobody’s looking, like counting its own bricks and getting dizzy.

EdgeworthstownHistoric town · 655 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Edgeworthstown itself would explain the 1800s to a teenager by saying, 'Imagine a party where everyone is drunk and nobody knows why.' The town was founded by rich people who liked building things. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.
Deer park in EdgeworthstownDeer park · 668 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Deer park in Edgeworthstown is a vanished enclosure where deer once roamed and made suspicious noises at midnight. The house is fancy, but the park just wanted to eat the hedges. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.
Designed landscapeDesigned landscape, formal garden · 668 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Designed landscape in Edgeworthstown is a formal garden that once competed with Versailles for the title of most posh patch of dirt.
