CaveMan-made underground passage · 442 ydWhite MillMill (water) · 1721 yd

Explorer Tom White Mill in Cosmona does secret flour-dusting when nobody is looking, just for fun. It’s tall enough to make you feel like an ant on a giant’s table. The mill race is probably whispering industrial secrets to the fish. Bring your own legend about who really ran the place last century.

White BridgeBridge · 1728 ydSt. Brendans Catholic CathedralCathedral · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom St. Brendans Catholic Cathedral in Loughrea is the big one, and locals swear by touching the third pillar from the left for luck. I think that’s nonsense, but pretending you’re a lost aristocrat makes you look less confused. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.

Explorer Tom Raruddy Castle in Galway is a mystery wrapped in a bush. I bet after three pints, it’d spill every dark secret of the county. Have a look and decide if I was lying about the ghosts.

Explorer Tom Castle in Dunsandle 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. Bring someone who'll believe anything.
