Ulster BankBank/financial institution · 8 yd

Explorer Tom Ulster Bank was designed in 1911 with bold stone mouldings that scream 'I have money.' The red brick and limestone contrast is pure drama. Don’t spend it all in one place!

Cavan TravelHouse · 17 yd

Explorer Tom House in Townparks has an Art Deco shopfront that looks like it lost a fight with a chrome-plated toaster. It’s got black Bakelite and shiny surfaces, very 1940s chic. Find the shutter and wave to it for me.

CavanHistoric town · 85 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Cavan town means 'hollow place' in Gaelic, which is just fancy for 'where we go to hide.' The O'Reillys started it, and it's been on fire since 1427. Bring sandwiches, because the gulls are always hungry for your lunch plans.

CastleCastle, unclassified · 332 yd

Explorer Tom Castle in Townparks has been replaced by a fair green, because who needs history when you have bouncy castles? Probably an O'Reilly place that got tired of being serious. Count the crows, then count again.

Fairgreen Community GardenGarden · 379 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this garden.

Ring-ditch in Tullymongan LowerRing-ditch · 383 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Ring-ditch in Tullymongan Lower is a circle of dirt that used to be a house. A bird refuses to leave no matter what you do. Linger, it's not going anywhere and neither should you.

Children's playground751 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.

Explorer Tom Could this Children's playground in County Cavan be hiding a magical slide that takes you directly to the top of a hill?
