Explorer Tom Hut site in Coomcallee sits on a ridge that looks like it was built by giants who forgot the roof. Local legend says a giant sneezed and knocked it over, but I think he just tripped. Hang around long enough and you'll hear a story from a local.

Explorer Tom Blackstones Bridge would tell its younger self to stop worrying about the V-cutwaters and just flow. Four arches of pure confidence stand over the river without a single apology. Get there early and have it all to yourself.

Castle Core (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 6.1 mi

Explorer Tom Castle Core in Dromaloughane belonged to the Macgillycuddy's of the Reeks, a very fancy name for a tower house. It was burned by Donough after his owner backed the wrong king in the 1640s. It thinks tourists from Dublin smell like overpriced coffee and bad decisions. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.

Saint Mary's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 6.5 mi

Explorer Tom Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Coolmagort nearly got famous when a tourist mistook it for a movie set. It’s just a church that tried very hard to be Gothic Revival. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place.
