CairnCairn, boundary cairn · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Cairn in Carker North is one of five on Carron Mountain, marking the border between Cork and Limerick. It’s basically a stone argument that nobody ever resolved. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.
Little CarronMountain / peak · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Little Carron 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.
Heatherside HospitalHospital/infirmary · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Heatherside Hospital in Streamhill West was a TB sanatorium from 1909 with curved façades that look surprisingly modern. The timber-clad ancillary buildings are a bit unusual, but the whole complex has a certain dramatic flair.
Seefin Mountain West TopMountain / peak · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Seefin Mountain West Top 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.
Streamhill HouseHouse · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Streamhill House is sitting there looking derelict but still fancy in its red sandstone robes from 1856. It was built by Edward Kavanagh Murphy, so it’s got serious architectural pedigree. Take a picture!
CastlepookCastle · 2.5 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!
Castle Pook (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 2.5 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.
Children's playground4.2 miComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Limerick. 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.
Doneraile CourtGates/railings/walls · 4.8 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.
Sweet Chestnut5.0 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.
Sycamore5.9 miExplorer Tom Sycamore has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a sycamore 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 · 6.6 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!
