WatervilleHouse · 12 ydExplorer Tom Waterville is sitting on Front Strand with decorative plaques that look like they were made by a very fancy leaf enthusiast. Have a peek because it’s part of a group that thinks being fashionable started with a railway track.
SummervilleHouse · 22 ydExplorer Tom Summerville in Claycastle gave up its grandeur for Lent and now just enjoys being part of that fashionable seaside resort group from the railway era. It’s kept its original form and salient features, looking charming right on Front Strand. Save a cookie for it if you’re passing by with a snack.
IndicatedIcehouse · 653 ydExplorer Tom Icehouse in Dysart is a circular stone structure with a corbelled brick roof sitting on a grassy mound south of the house. It’s got a door facing north-east and a tiny hole at the top for ventilation, probably so the ice could breathe. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming.

English holly1.2 miExplorer Tom Another English holly, smelling like wet cardboard and regret according to Tom's nose. It says it only grows on land that was once haunted by bad decisions. Dare you to say hello out loud, see if it flinches.
European Yew1.2 miExplorer Tom This European Yew has strict visitor rules: no loud noises, no bad jokes, and definitely no touching the bark unless you've got permission. I probably didn't. Go on, count the branches and get it wrong like I did.
Ferry PointViewpoint · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Ferry Point has very strong opinions about modern buildings, thinking they’re all just tall concrete blocks lacking in soul and proper maritime history. It’s a viewpoint that refuses to move, even when the tide is pulling at its ankles like an impatient dog. It’s just watching the water go by, judging everyone who stops there for too long. Linger, it's not going anywhere and neither should you.
Caliso BayBeach / strand · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Caliso Bay has been keeping a secret since the 90s about where it hid its wallet after a night out in Youghal. It swears it was just a mischievous gull doing it. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next.
