Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Burtown BigFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 539 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Burtown Big is in a feud with the next village over who has the ugliest fence. It’s oval and banked, but mostly just angry about the whole situation. Ring your granny and tell her where you are.

Enclosure in Burtown BigEnclosure · 716 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Burtown Big is kidney-shaped because it got stretched out trying to fit next door. It would tell the new development that it was here first and meant business. Bring a flask of something warm and a story to swap.

Inch CastleCastle, tower house · 1177 yd

Explorer Tom Inch Castle in County Kildare started because two lads bet they could build it before lunch. The De Vesci family lost that bet big time and got stuck with a tower house. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.

Burtown HouseFarm house · 1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Burtown House is modest from the front but absolutely massive around the back, like a cat hiding a big tail. A fiddler played there all night once, and the walls are still trying to remember the tune he left behind. Practise your Irish accent before you approach it, because it expects you to know exactly how grand it really is.

Scots Pine2.1 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.

Ardscull MoatCastle, motte · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Ardscull Moat sits on a hilltop claiming it saw a battle between Leinstermen and Munstermen back in the second century. That’s a long time to be waiting for proof. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.
