demesne walls/gates/railings816 yd

Explorer Tom Demesne walls in Ardrahan South have an imaginary fan club that just screams and throws flowers at the piers. The quadrant plan is basically a stone maze for confused pigeons. Toast it with a cup of tea and move along.

Ardrahan Garda Síochána StationRic barracks · 1058 ydRound Tower (in ruins)Round tower · 1059 yd

Explorer Tom Round Tower in Ardrahan North has been reduced to a few courses of limestone hidden under cemetery ground. Nobody knows where the top went, so I’m guessing it got promoted to heaven. Bring a pen pal, they’ll be jealous of its mystery.

Castle (in ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 1192 yd

Explorer Tom Castle in Ardrahan North, County Galway is probably where the rabbits hold their council meetings every Tuesday night. They look very serious when they discuss the grass situation out there. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.

Explorer Tom Drumharsna Castle was owned by Shane Ballagh back in 1574. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes and actually look at something real.

Explorer Tom St. Sorneys Well has seven steps and a tradition of patterns that sound like a very organized gym routine. It bragged about surviving storms, but mostly it’s just there for the votive offerings. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination.
