Explorer Tom Burial ground in Coolroe More is basically a blank space because nobody uploaded the details yet. It’s just a name on a list waiting for a story that isn’t there. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun of it all really.
Lacka BrBridge · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Lacka Bridge in Glen South is showing off its three arches like it’s got a secret. It’s been straddling that river since the 1800s, probably judging your driving all while you do it. Give it a pat on the way past, it’s had a long life.
Lacka BridgeBridge · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Lacka Bridge is doing some serious flexing with those triple arches over the Glen River. Built c. 1810, the cutwaters and voussoirs are just begging for a photo op. It’s a technical marvel that looks like it belongs in a museum.

St Abigails WellHoly well · 4.1 miExplorer Tom St Abigails Well is enclosed in a D-shaped structure with niches for cups, looking very organized and bureaucratic. It’s still in use and has crosses carved on the stones by pilgrims who needed to mark their spot. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.
Clonmeen Court (Site of)House, fortified house · 4.1 miExplorer Tom Clonmeen Court in Clonmeen North is sitting on a plateau overlooking the river, but a disused quarry has been eating away at its foundations. It's like watching your neighbour slowly dig into your garden while you pretend not to notice. Bring sandwiches, the gulls will thank you.
St Fursey's WellSpring · 4.2 miGurteenkreen Castle (Site of)Castle, unclassified · 4.3 miExplorer Tom Gurteenkreen Castle has vanished from the flat pasture. A 1907 photo shows it covered in ivy with a house built against it. Now? Just grass and speculation. It’s like the castle went on holiday and never came back. Typical Irish ghost story.
