Ballinaboy Church of Ireland ChurchChurch/chapel · 49 ydExplorer Tom Ballinaboy Church of Ireland Church sits overlooking the village like it’s judging your parking. It replaced a dilapidated building from 1837, so it’s definitely seen better days. Bring some incense to mask the vibes.
Settlement desertedSettlement deserted, medieval · 137 ydExplorer Tom Settlement deserted in Ballinaboy was a whole town according to old maps, now it's just a field with strong opinions about history. Go at sunset and thank me later when the light makes you feel like a proper explorer for once.
Ballinaboy HouseCountry house · 196 ydExplorer Tom Ballinaboy House overlooks Ballinhassig with an off-centre design that draws attention to its round-headed stairwell window. It’s got internal timber shutters and slate walls, so it’s basically a fancy box on top of a hill. Its opinion of the road is probably 'too bumpy'.

Manx2 Flight 7100Aviation accident · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Manx2 Flight 7100 is doing a bit of aerial limbo over County Cork. Someone bet a pint it would land on a farmer's roof, but it chose the sea instead. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun.

Ballea CastleCastle, tower house · 4.8 miExplorer Tom Ballea Castle in Ballea sits on a cliff above the Owenboy River. The FitzGeralds built it back in 1439, and it’s been renovated since. It’s got an iron grille on the door that looks pretty intimidating.
Grave YardGraveyard · 5.5 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Kilnaglory has a church ruin in the middle that's seen better days. Headstones go back to 1760, so plenty of ancestors are chatting away under the dirt. Give them a wave for me!
Ballincollig Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 5.7 miExplorer Tom Ballincollig Castle in Ballincollig stands on a limestone outcrop with a tall slender tower. The Wyse family repaired it in 1857 and put up a plaque. It’s got a trap-door entrance that sounds pretty scary!
