Explorer Tom Farm house in Rubble has a Turkish reed roof that looks absolutely ridiculous against the local stone. A goat ruled this place for a decade before anyone noticed. Sit on a wall near it and preten

Castle (in Ruins)Castle, unclassified · 2.5 mi

Explorer Tom Rubble Castle has a family tree mostly made up of guesswork and very confident guesses by old men. It’s named after what it looks like: expensive rubble with attitude. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Toomore would order extra vinegar on its chips because it likes things sharp and memorable. It recently got a new shrine, which is basically a fancy hat for the entrance. If it's closed, admire it from the road like a polite stalker.

Explorer Tom Lough Talt Trail has a shortcut that is technically longer if you count the time spent arguing about which way is down. The water supply up there is public, but the ego of this trail seems to be private property. Get there early and have it all to yourself.

Largan HillMountain / peak · 6.9 mi

Explorer Tom Largan Hill in County Sligo is strictly run by a terrier who barks at any cloud that passes overhead. The forest below looks young and confused, probably from all the shouting. Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.
