Fulachta FiadhFulacht fia · 580 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulachta Fiadh in Ballynagree West is just a charred rumor under the grass. Two of them sit right next to each other, probably gossiping about who burned what first. Keep your eyes peeled for those stones!
Fulacht fia in Knocknagappul (muskerry West By.)Fulacht fia · 632 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Fulacht fia in Knocknagappul is barely perceptible, which means it’s shy. A local cow once tried to buy it for a pound, but the price was too steep. Have a chat with it, nobody's watching.
Fulacht FiadhFulacht fia · 797 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht Fiadh in Ballynagree West is a grass-covered spread of burnt material. It’s right next to its sibling pit fifty meters north. They must have cooked together or had a competition over who had hotter stones.
Enclosure in Knocknagappul (muskerry West By.)Enclosure · 828 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Enclosure in Knocknagappul is a small circular area just over twelve meters across. It’s enclosed by an earthen bank about a meter high. It sits on a gentle south-facing slope in pasture. It’s subtle, so you might need to look twice to spot it.
Fulacht Fiadh (Site of)Fulacht fia · 853 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht Fiadh in Ballynagree West is marked on an old map but has no surface trace now. It used to be there by the stream. Now it’s just a memory and a label on a 1938 chart. Gone, poof!
Fulacht fia in Ballynagree WestFulacht fia · 882 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht fia in Ballynagree West was found during land reclamation but got levelled out. Now there’s no visible trace left at all. It’s like they paved over the barbecue grill and forgot about it completely.
GallánStanding stone · 888 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Gallán in Ballynagree West wasn't shown on old maps, so it’s an uninvited guest. Its secret talent is disappearing without a trace. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
GalláinStanding stone, pair · 943 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Galláin in Ballynagree East is a pair of stones overlooking the river valley. They’re having a quiet rivalry with more famous sites. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.
post box2.1 miExplorer Tom Post box in Bawnmore is a cast-iron secret keeper from the late nineteenth century. It’s been hiding scandals since before Wi-Fi existed. Twist: give it a wink if you think it knows where your missing socks are.
kiln3.1 miExplorer Tom Kiln in Coolaniddane is an 1820s limekiln that’s been sitting by the roadside doing nothing for ages. It’s got limestone walls and a segmental arch that remind you of when people were burning rock for fun, or at least for mortar.
