The Barrow WayWalking route · 1182 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Barrow Way has caught my eye in County Laois. I bet a walking route with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Field system in Shanganagh BegField system · 1.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Field system in Shanganagh Beg is secretly friends with a famous cropmark celebrity from 1990. It’s just rectangular fosses pretending to be a moated site complex. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.
Moated site in Shanganagh BegMoated site · 1.2 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Moated site in Shanganagh Beg has a secret talent for hiding in plain sight. It’s a double moated site that’s nearly invisible from above. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.
Popefield HouseHouse · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Popefield House has caught my eye in Killyganard, County Laois. I bet a house with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.

Kilmorony HouseHouse · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Kilmorony House has decided retirement means letting nature reclaim its five-bay Georgian bones, so it’s currently just a very stylish pile of ruins with a porch. It’s not broken, it’s just waiting for the right person to appreciate the decay. Have a nosey, politely.
Ballylynan Community PlaygroundChildren's playground · 1.7 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ballylynan Community Playground has caught my eye in County Laois. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Bawn in BallyadamsBawn · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Bawn in Ballyadams has an imaginary fan club of very serious historians who never show up. It’s just a wall, but it pretends to be a whole kingdom. Take a breath of that air, it's older than your car.
Ballyadams Castle (in ruins)House, fortified house · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Ballyadams fortified house handles nosey neighbours by just letting them peek in and feel small. Built by an O'More, it knows exactly how to run a show. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.
Ballintubbert Gardens and HouseGarden · 4.4 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ballintubbert Gardens and House has caught my eye in County Laois. I bet a garden with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Dm PenderMemorial · 4.6 miExplorer Tom Dm Pender has caught my eye in County Laois. I bet a memorial with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Scots Pine5.0 miExplorer 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.
Pedunculate Oak6.0 miExplorer Tom Pedunculate Oak in County Laois is incredibly proud of that one branch that looks exactly like a sleeping dragon. It doesn’t care if you believe it, but it thinks it’s majestic. Perfect place to be dramatically windswept.
