Castle BellinghamGate lodge · 112 yd
monument153 ydExplorer Tom Monument in Castlebellingham has a ghost who’s too lazy to haunt it because he’d have to climb the mound again. It’s made from an oak that got blown down, so it’s basically recycled wood with attitude. Look up, the best bit is how it stands there without complaining about the wind.

Ring-ditch in MilestownRing-ditch · 344 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ring-ditch in Milestown is where a fiddler played all night until the circle spun itself dizzy. The music stopped long ago, but the grass still remembers the rhythm. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.
GreenmountCastle, motte and bailey · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Greenmount is where a bishop once refused to visit because he said the view was too good and it distracted him from his prayers. He never came back since then. Hang around long enough and you'll hear a story from a local.
Graveyard in Richardstown (ardee By., Richardstown Par.)Graveyard · 3.9 miExplorer Tom Richardstown’s graveyard sits in the wooded grounds of a castle with a modern top half. It is secretly proud of the potato it grew there in 1740. Dare you to say hello to it out loud.
Monterey Cypress4.0 miExplorer Tom Monterey Cypress in County Louth does weird yoga poses when nobody's looking, twisting its branches into shapes that defy physics. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise, and watch it stretch out lazily for you.
Richardstown CastleCastle, tower house · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Richardstown Castle has four round towers that make it look like it’s trying to hold up the sky. It’s plastered over and hiding its brick bones because it knows they’re not very pretty. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.
European Yew5.1 miExplorer Tom European Yew in County Louth offers a shortcut that isn't a shortcut, just a long loop back to where you started. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it while admiring this ancient, confusing green maze.
Graveyard in DysartGraveyard · 5.1 miExplorer Tom Dysart’s church has a belfry that probably screamed louder than the vicar in the 1800s. It tells teenagers that back then, we had no Wi-Fi but plenty of gossip. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.
