Saint Brigid's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1.7 miEuropean ash1.9 miRaheengraney HouseCountry house · 2.0 miCork oak2.2 miLabbanasigheWedge tomb · 3.4 mi

Explorer Tom Labbanasighe in Moylisha, County Wicklow is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass!

Ballynultagh HillMountain / peak · 3.7 miClonogan Castle (site of)Castle, unclassified · 4.0 mi

Explorer Tom Clonogan Castle in Carlow was once owned by the Earls of Kildare before getting kicked out. Its New Year's resolution is probably to stop being so difficult. Look serious, nod slowly, and you're basically an expert now.

Cross-slab in Aghowle Lower (shillelagh By.)Cross-slab · 4.1 mi

Explorer Tom Cross-slab in Aghowle Lower would cope badly on a reality show due to its lack of dialogue. It can’t argue with the other stones or win any challenges. But its stoic presence might just be what the audience needs right now. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat.

Huntington Castle & GardensHeritage attraction · 4.6 mi

Explorer Tom Huntington Castle & Gardens is a beautiful heritage attraction, and the castle itself looks absolutely stunning in the photos.

Saint Brigid's WellSpring · 5.2 mi

Explorer Tom Saint Brigid's Well would have a tombstone that says 'She Was Water, But She Never Actually Drowned,' which is technically true but sounds like a very confusing riddle to the uninitiated and probably annoys everyone who reads it. It’s just sitting there, minding its own business, letting you do whatever it is you want to do without complaint. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.

SlieveboyMountain / peak · 5.4 mi

Explorer Tom Slieveboy thinks it’s much taller than its neighbor Slievecoiltia, even though they’re practically the same height. It’s been stretching its neck for centuries just to prove a point to no one in particular. Get there early and have it all to yourself.

1798 rebellion Battle of Newtownbarry (aka Bunclody) commemorative plaqueMemorial · 6.2 mi

Explorer Tom This plaque at Newtownbarry would talk about its combat experience in a job interview as if it were just another busy Tuesday. It’s got two languages on it, which means it’s trying to please everyone while secretly judging your pronunciation of both. Get there early and have it all to yourself.
