water pump782 ydExplorer Tom Water pump in Knockbrack is an 1880 cast-iron beauty on a stone platform, with a curved cow's tail handle. It’s a reminder of how we used to get our water. Give that fluted neck a little tap if you dare!
Newtown HouseHouse · 950 ydExplorer Tom Newtown House in Carker Beg was built by John Evans in 1847 with classical proportions and a low-pitched hipped roof. It’s got diminishing windows that are quite something. Check out that recessed front elevation for me, it’s grand!
Castle Pook (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Castle Pook was built by Geoffrey the Red way back in 1380. A man died there in 1748 aged 106! That is either incredible health or really bad bookkeeping. Either way, it’s a spooky little rock-topper.
CastlepookCastle · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Castlepook in County Cork is keeping its secrets close to its chest. It's recorded as a castle, but that's all I know. Don't be shy; take a picture for me if you can spot anything that looks like it belongs in a storybook!
Smith's WellSpring · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Smith's Well has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a spring 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.
Doneraile CourtGates/railings/walls · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Doneraile Court has caught my eye in Demesne, County Cork. I bet a gates/railings/walls 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 playground1.4 miComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Cork. 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.
Sweet Chestnut1.4 miExplorer Tom Sweet Chestnut has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a sweet chestnut 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.
European Yew1.7 miExplorer Tom European Yew has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a european yew 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.
TowerDovecote · 4.2 miExplorer Tom Dovecote in Ballybeg East is full of pigeon holes stacked up to the ceiling. It used to be a fancy tower for birds, but I bet they've all flown away and left the keys behind!
CarrigeenamronetyMountain / peak · 6.9 miExplorer Tom Carrigeenamronety has caught my eye in County Limerick. I bet a mountain / peak 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.
Grave YardGraveyard · 8.9 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Marshalstown has two church ruins inside it, which is quite the architectural cluster. It's still in use with headstones from the 19th century, so don't be too loud when you visit.
