ThesureStone row · 12 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Thesure in Beenalaght is a stone row where the middle bit has collapsed into a nap. It would win a county fair for 'Most Disappointed Architect' because the stones decrease in height towards the centre. Tell the kids it’s a castle. Close enough.
Fulacht fia in BeenalaghtFulacht fia · 200 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Fulacht fia in Beenalaght is levelled on P. Sexton's land, so basically gone but spiritually present. The rabbits think it’s a nice hill to nap on. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want?
Stone row in BeenalaghtStone row · 200 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Stone row in Beenalaght has four stones, but the fourth one gave up and lay down flat. It’s sick of being asked if it’s a fence, so I just assume it’s tired. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you’re lost.
Man-made underground passage1047 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Beenalaght is overgrown and has massive issues with modern buildings. It thinks your phone is an insult to its dignity. Practise your Irish on it, it won’t correct you because it’s too busy sulking in the mud.
Fulacht FiadhFulacht fia · 1405 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Fulacht Fiadh in Gowlane North is having a quiet moment, buried under grass after being levelled around 1900. It used to be four feet high, so someone must have really needed the space for parking.
Fulacht fia in BoolaFulacht fia · 1514 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Fulacht fia in Boola has no info uploaded yet, which is annoying. The archive says to book an appointment to find out more, so it’s a total mystery box sitting there without any proper description or details.
Children's playground1638 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Cork. 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.
Wayside shrine1688 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom This Wayside shrine in County Cork is hiding its secrets well. No records, no info, just vibes. It’s probably whispering ancient prayers to the passing tractors. Give it a wave and keep walking!
BweengduffMountain / peak · 2.2 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Bweengduff has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak 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.
UctoughMountain / peak · 2.7 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Uctough has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak 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.
Saint Abigail's WellHoly well · 4.5 miExplorer Tom Saint Abigail's Well in Kilgobnet is sitting in a graveyard that’s been around since 1720. It’s got a plaque about the 1872 plague, which is a great conversation starter for nobody. Dip a bucket in if you dare, just make sure it doesn’t bite back!
Lacka BridgeBridge · 4.8 miExplorer Tom Lacka Bridge is doing some serious flexing with those triple arches over the Glen River. Built c. 1810, the cutwaters and voussoirs are just begging for a photo op. It’s a technical marvel that looks like it belongs in a museum.
