Boulta HouseCountry house · 1399 ydExplorer Tom Boulta House is being all somber and elegant because it’s having a mood swing in the country. It’s got render quoins that look like they’re holding it together. Tell your mate it’s not trying to be fancy, just tired!
Longueville HouseFarm house · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Longueville House in Longueville South 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. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Graveyard1.2 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Ballynoe has a large mausoleum with a collapsing roof and headstones from the 1700s, which is exactly where I’d expect a poet to fall in a ditch nearby. It’s still in use today. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
Graveyard in Curraheen (kinnatalloon By.)Graveyard · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Curraheen is stuck in a fairy dispute over who gets to park their invisible carts first, likely involving some very angry pixies with tiny law degrees. Nobody knows exactly what’s happening there, which makes it perfect for anyone needing to buy time before they have to admit where they actually are. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.

Conna CastleCastle · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Conna Castle in County Cork is doing its best to look mysterious, which is hard when you are just a dot on the map. I bet it has a secret entrance behind the trees for spies. Snap that for me!
Conna Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Conna Castle in Conna is perched on a steep rock outcrop, looking down its nose at the river below. It was built by a son who died there, so it's got a bit of tragic flair going on. Pop by and tell it it's looking well.
Salt HillMountain / peak · 2.5 miGraveyard in KillasseraghGraveyard · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Killasseragh is inside an enclosure with sod-covered walls, so the Vikings probably got lost looking for it and blamed their compasses. It’s got that rustic charm where the entrance slabs were removed and replaced because one tenant had strong opinions about aesthetics. Have a nosey, politely.
Aghern CemeteryWood · 3.6 miLeahy's Open FarmHeritage attraction · 3.9 mi
St Bridgets WellHoly well · 4.7 miExplorer Tom St Bridgets Well in Britway is enclosed by a stone wall with offerings inside. Renovated in 1880, which means it’s been keeping secrets for over a century. Peek through the gaps and see what people left.
