Structure in CahermacnaghtenStructure · 343 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Structure in Cahermacnaghten was mistaken for a beehive hut back in the day, but turns out to be a modern oval shape with stones set on edge. I reckon the matchmaker who worked there had terrible taste in architecture. Bring a pen pal, they'll be jealous.
IndicatedField system · 511 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Field system in Cahermacnaghten stretches across so many townlands it’s basically its own little country with its own laws and 28 cashels. There was a love story here that went badly wrong next to it, involving a horse and a misunderstanding. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.
Hut site in CahermacnaghtenHut site · 594 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Hut site in Cahermacnaghten is near a schoolhouse where lawyers used to learn the law, so it’s probably full of legal jargon now. It suspects the postman of stealing its stones. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
Site of OLoughlins CastleHouse, 16th century · 737 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom O’Loughlin’s Castle is actually just the foundations of a house that got confused about what it was supposed to be. If it were a person at a wedding, it would be the uncle who shows up late wearing only one sock. Have a wander and a wonder.
CahermacnaghtenFairy fort / stone ringfort · 744 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cahermacnaghten is sitting pretty on the Burren, likely thinking about what it built for dinner last Tuesday. It’s got a big ego and zero chill. Dare you to say hello to it out loud.

Cahermacnaghten CashelHeritage attraction · 746 ydExplorer Tom Cahermacnaghten Cashel is a place of ancient significance, where the echoes of history linger in County Clare's heritage.
ODavorens Sch (Site of)School · 747 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom ODavorens Sch in Cahermacnaghten might be a law school or just a big rock. The lawyers are still arguing about it. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
Burren WayWalking route · 1.4 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Burren Way in County Clare sounds rugged as hell! Rocks everywhere, like a lunar landscape. Wear proper boots or you'll regret it later, trust me.
Noughaval CrossMonument · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Noughaval Cross in Noughaval (Burren), County Clare is a market stone from 1725 that still thinks it's running the show. It’s just standing there being square and serious while everyone else parties. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.
Saint Mochua's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Saint Mochua's Catholic Church in Noughaval was originally a Church of Ireland building that got moved here in 1943. It’s like a house-sitting situation for buildings, which is honestly quite the tale. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.
Caherminnaun Castle (in ruins)Castle, unclassified · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Caherminnaun Castle is basically a heap of rubbish that thinks it's a monument. O’Curry said it was 'a heap of ruins' back in 1839, so really, what has changed? Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming with a cheap bottle of wine.
Ballyganner CastleCastle · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Ballyganner Castle is recorded in County Clare, inviting explorers to imagine the lives once lived within these historic stone walls.
