BarrowBarrow, unclassified · 398 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Barrow in Cahermacnaghten is a big earthen bank on the Burren plateau, looking like it nearly made it famous before getting bored. It’s circular and broad, basically a hug from the ground. Bring a pen pal, they'll be jealous of your adventure.

IndicatedField system · 621 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer 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.

Enclosure in CahermaanEnclosure · 727 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Cahermaan is playing hide-and-seek and winning big. The map says it was there in 1840, but now? Nowhere to be seen. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.

Enclosure in CahermacnaghtenEnclosure · 830 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Cahermacnaghten’s enclosure is so mysterious even the archive forgot it exists. It would get 'Resting' on its tombstone. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.

Structure in CahermacnaghtenStructure · 896 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Structure in Cahermacnaghten was once thought to be a beehive hut, which is a lovely idea until you realize bees aren't that fond of limestone pavements. The name probably means 'Place Where We Forgot To Put A Door'. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.

Site of OLoughlins CastleHouse, 16th century · 925 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer 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.

ODavorens Sch (Site of)School · 929 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer 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.

Cahermacnaghten CashelHeritage attraction · 929 yd

Burren WayWalking route · 2.1 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this walking route.

Explorer 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.

Gregans CastleHouse · 2.2 mi

Explorer Tom Gregans Castle in Gragan East, County Clare, is throwing a massive fit because some bloke added a hotel wing to it in the nineties. It’s basically a fancy guesthouse now with delusions of grandeur. Have a chat with it and tell it nobody's watching its back.

Noughaval Church (in ruins)Church · 2.6 mi

Explorer Tom Noughaval Church in Noughaval is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.

Laraghakea HillMountain / peak · 3.8 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.

Explorer Tom Laraghakea Hill, a peak that’s as mysterious as the legends that surround it in County Clare.
