Poul ArtCairn, ring-cairn · 697 ydComputer-made picture
CairnCairn, unclassified · 700 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cairn in Aghnaglear is sitting on a ridge in the Blackstairs Mountains, looking smug about its stone bank. It’s got a rivalry with a more famous place that it loses every time. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.
Ballycronigan RockMountain / peak · 773 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ballycronigan Rock sounds like a tough one! It's a peak in Carlow, and I bet it offers some great views for the adventurous.
BranbegMountain / peak · 1045 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Branbeg! A peak in County Carlow with a name that sounds like it belongs to a dragon; let's hope the winds are kind.
Marley BridgeBridge · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Marley Bridge is a single-arch granite bridge over a railway line, built in 1865 to look important. One parapet was removed recently, probably because it was causing traffic delays. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable.
Knockduff HouseHouse · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Knockduff House is telling its younger self to stop worrying about the pediment because the joinery is still there anyway. It’s a sturdy 1750 house that has seen better days and worse sandwiches. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch.
Silver Wattle3.5 miExplorer Tom Silver Wattle in County Carlow has strict rules: no screaming, no bad puns, and definitely no touching the bark without asking. It's all about manners out here. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost or just shy.
Graveyard in St. Mullin'sGraveyard · 3.6 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in St. Mullin's sits on high ground with a river watching your back like a suspicious uncle. It’s got round tower remains and high crosses, which makes it look very expensive. Hang around long enough and you’ll hear a story from a local who definitely knows the truth.
St. Mullins MoatCastle, motte and bailey · 3.7 miExplorer Tom St. Mullins Moat is a hill that got rich and moved out. It’s secretly proud of the potato it grew on its shoulder. Walk past slowly like you're in a film.
The SpoutSpring · 4.2 mi
Coolhill Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 4.6 miExplorer Tom Coolhill Castle is a circular tower on a steep precipice, looking very smug about it. Its first owner’s escape plan was probably just 'run really fast'. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.
St. Michaels Church (in Ruins), GraveyardChurch · 5.0 miExplorer Tom St. Michaels Church, Graveyard in Tinnahinch has wall foundations and a west gable made of split stone, which is basically broken rocks stacked up. An altar was erected there in 1989, so someone still cares about the vibe. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.
