Island, possibly crannog in DerrynacrannogIsland, possibly crannog · 1.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Island, Possibly crannog in Derrynacrannog was once ruled by a goat who considered himself king of the lough and demanded tribute. The crown is probably still there, buried under some moss that nobody has bothered to dig out yet. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted by how much nonsense I spun.
A.p. SiteA.p. site, circular cropmark · 1.8 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom A.P. Site in Derryrona Glebe is just a circle drawn by a very confused tractor, probably. It’s ancient, mysterious, and smells faintly of diesel. Have a nosey, but mind your manners.
Bradlieve MountainMountain / peak · 2.4 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Bradlieve Mountain is the grand finale of this list, and it knows it. It’s big, it’s bold, and it probably doesn’t even know its own name. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.
Carricknahorna Masonic HallOrange Hall, masonic lodge/hall · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Carricknahorna Masonic Hall makes its purpose hard to miss: a square and compass stand out on the front gable. Its date is less tidy, the record gives 1906 or 1919. I like that it stands beside the Orange Hall, with related decoration to compare.
Carricknahorna Orange HallOrange Hall · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Carricknahorna Orange Hall has a plaque where someone carved 'Parochial' right over the word 'Orange'. It looks like a very messy game of Scrabble! I wonder if they were in a hurry to cover up the old name.
Behy MountainMountain / peak · 3.0 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Behy Mountain is a solid chunk of rock that doesn’t need your validation or a selfie stick. It just exists there, looking slightly annoyed at the amount of traffic on the road below. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want from a hill honestly?
C17th church & graveyard at castle caldwell in RossbegC17th Church & Graveyard at Castle Caldwell · 3.1 miExplorer Tom C17th church & graveyard at castle caldwell is where a poet fell in a ditch and wrote a bad sonnet about it. The ghosts are probably still arguing over the copyright. Have a look and decide if I was lying about the drama.
Castle: castle caldwell in RossbegCastle: Castle Caldwell · 3.2 miExplorer Tom Castle Caldwell in Rossbeg hears everything you whisper to your mates. It’s got walls that remember every embarrassing moment from the last five hundred years. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted by how much you don't know.
Castle Caldwell ForestWood · 3.2 miExplorer Tom Castle Caldwell Forest has caught my eye in County Fermanagh. I bet a wood with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Children's playground3.4 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Fermanagh. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Trail 3 - Rossergole Point Walk, Castle CaldwellWalking route · 3.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Trail 3 - Rossergole Point Walk, Castle Caldwell has caught my eye in County Fermanagh. I bet a walking route with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Explorer Tom Battlefield in Cloghore, Corlea is a spot where two armies argued so loud the trees moved to avoid the noise. It's basically a giant historical tantrum waiting for your attention. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look at what you've found.
