Cist GraveHouse, indeterminate date · 107 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cist Grave in Carraghadoo is classified as a house, which is a lie we tell ourselves so we don't have to talk about bones. A priest lost a bet here once and had to sleep on top of it for a week. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
Man-made underground passage in CarraghadooMan-made underground passage · 107 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Carraghadoo has no record, so I’m blaming the weather’s long-standing grudge against it. It probably got flooded one time and just quit. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't see anything weird happen.
Caherrory WellWell · 426 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Caherrory Well is definitely guarding a treasure that turns out to be just a rusty biscuit tin. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed at all.
IndicatedWell · 746 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Well in Caherpeak West would explain the 1800s to a teenager as 'just vibes, no Wi-Fi.' It’s been waiting for someone to appreciate its depth. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.
Raheen FortsFairy fort / stone ringfort · 782 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The bigger Raheen Forts has two collapsed walls and a laneway cutting right through its gut. It feels like it’s been through a lot of drama and isn’t talking about it. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming.
LisnagreggaFairy fort / stone ringfort · 901 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Lisnagregga is sitting on a low ridge, looking slightly embarrassed about its collapsed state. A goat once ruled this place and I think he still thinks the keys are under the mat. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.
Enclosure in Caherpeak WestEnclosure · 1082 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Enclosure in Caherpeak West used to be something substantial, but now it’s just a vague suggestion of a wall. It would describe itself as 'rustic' in a job interview, which is code for 'broken'. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.
Kilcolgan CastleStables · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Kilcolgan Castle is actually stables for a castle, which is a bit of a plot twist, innit? St George family wanted to impress everyone with fancy Gibbsian surrounds just for their horses. Visit, then text your mates about the equestrian luxury.
Site of Kilcolgan CastleCastle, tower house · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Site of Kilcolgan Castle in Kilcolgan is basically a ghost with a property dispute. The builder must have been thinking about lunch while laying the foundation, because it vanished before the paint dried. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.
