Friary (in Ruins) GraveyardGraveyard · 467 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Friary Graveyard in Kilmainham has a legend about a giant who sneezed on the foundation stones. The ruins are crumbling, but the story is still standing firm. Give it a pat on the way past, it's had a long life.
aqueduct1383 ydExplorer Tom Aqueduct in Debicot, County Laois would tell teenagers the 1800s were basically just fancy water pipes with no Wi-Fi. It carried a canal that doesn’t even exist anymore. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.
Cross-inscribed stone in AcragarCross-inscribed stone · 1396 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cross-inscribed stone in Acragar started because two lads bet a pint that someone could carve a cross in a ditch. It’s opposite the graveyard entrance, looking slightly annoyed at the traffic. Go in good boots and better humour.

Pedunculate Oak3.7 miExplorer Tom Pedunculate Oak in County Laois was nearly sold to a farmer as a replacement horse because nobody could tell the difference at a distance. The farmer was very confused when it didn’t gallop. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever.
Emo CourtBuilding misc · 3.7 miExplorer Tom This bachelor wing at Emo Court was built for a single guy with serious style. It claims to have survived a storm so bad it scared the horses. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.
Monterey Cypress3.7 miExplorer Tom Monterey Cypress in County Laois nearly became famous for looking like a wizard who forgot his hat. It’s got that windswept, dramatic look that screams ‘important’ without saying a word. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
