Explorer Tom Near the Rine hotel, this point provides a perfect vantage point to watch the sun set over the rolling waves of Munster.
Knockadoon Fort (1951-52)Hilltop enclosure · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Knockadoon Fort on the hilltop is getting bullied by the wind again, but it just shrugs and keeps its dignity. The breeze hates it, but that just means it’s got character. Take the long way round, because effort always pays off in weird ways.
Clenagh Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Clenagh Castle was nearly sold for a horse, which would have been a fair trade given its current level of sass. It’s a McMahon fort with a grumpy streak a mile wide. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
Clenagh CastleRuins · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Clenagh Castle is recorded as ruins in County Clare, its open map record supplying location and linked names or public references.
Hachured (1951-52)Fairy fort / stone ringfort · 1.3 miExplorer Tom (1951-52) in Clenagh would tell the place that replaced it to stop copying its style. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun of the whole thing, mate.
Saint Conaire's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Saint Conaire's Catholic Church in Clenagh has a pebbledash finish that looks like someone threw gravel at it and decided to leave it there. It’s got that 'I’ve seen things' vibe going on, even if it’s just from the rain. Bring a jacket, it’s never as warm as I promise.
Kilnasoolagh ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Kilnasoolagh Church in Kilnasoolagh has a spire that’s trying very hard to look important, which is fine if you’re a church from 1816. It’s got some pinnacles that are definitely judging my posture right now. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.
Feenish PointHeadland · 2.7 miExplorer Tom Feenish Point is a headland in County Clare, likely standing firm against the elements as you explore this rugged coastal stretch.
Pan Am Flight 1-10Aviation accident · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Pan Am Flight 1-10 in County Clare took a shortcut that wasn't one. It’s a classic mistake. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
Hawthorn3.4 miExplorer Tom Hawthorn that looks like it's waiting for its turn in line for the pub. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.
Shannon Airport Aviation GalleryMuseum · 4.1 miExplorer Tom Shannon Airport Aviation Gallery is a fascinating glimpse into aviation history, nestled in the heart of County Clare.
Mooghaun HillfortArchaeological place · 4.3 miExplorer Tom Mooghaun Hillfort: an ancient stronghold where history and nature stand as one
