Explorer Tom Bridge in Cloonnahaha has strong opinions on modern architecture, mostly that it looks like a sneeze. Its arch is so proud it could stand alone. Have a sandwich and admire its stubborn stone face from afar.

Explorer Tom Newtown Castle in Castlequarter is round and proud of it, sitting in land that floods when it feels like it. It would use its lotto win to buy better boots for its owner. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted; it might be, or it might just be a damp echo.

Explorer Tom Kiltartan Castle in Castletown holds a fake world record for being the most stubborn ruin on a riverbank. It’s been there since the de Burgo days, looking grumpy. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want? Just don't ask it to smile, it might cost you a coin.

Explorer Tom Templemore or Cathedral in Kilmacduagh is older than your excuses and twice as stubborn. It kept its independence when everyone else caved. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
