What is recorded here

Situated in the interior of Cahermore cashel (CL010-073----). Indicated by a small rectangle in the N centre of the cashel on the 1897 OS 25-inch plan and the 1920 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, with the label ‘Cave’. This Man-made underground passage was described by Westropp (1896, 366) as orientated NW-SE, and located in the NW interior of the cashel, c. 3.66m from the wall. No clear traces of the Man-made underground passage were found during an inspection in 1999, but a low grassy hummock in the W interior of the cashel was noted as a possible archaeological feature.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record CL010-073002

Explorer Tom Fulacht fia in Knockans Upper is hiding in a hazel wood, playing possum with a dog that’s definitely in charge of the place. Pack a picnic and an excuse.

Fulacht fia in LackareaghFulacht fia · 203 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Fulacht fia in Lackareagh is chilling right by a pond, probably contemplating its own mortality. It’s well-preserved, which is ironic considering it’s basically a hole in the ground that nobody visits. Look serious, nod slowly, you're basically an expert now.

Father Ted's HouseHeritage attraction · 703 yd

Explorer Tom Father Ted's House is a nostalgic glimpse into Ireland's comedy heritage, with the exterior shots of the show preserved in County Clare.

Glenquin HouseFarm house · 708 yd

Explorer Tom Glenquin House in Poulnalour was used for Father Ted, so it’s basically a shrine to bad puns. It would post a selfie on social media with the caption 'Living my best parochial life.' Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost or just weird.

Explorer Tom Mullagh More, a limestone hill in County Clare that's as hardy as the people who live there.

Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Castle in ruins near Carran Turlough is secretly proud of the potato growing next to its foundation because the castle is doing worse. It controls a routeway but mostly just controls your sense of direction. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming.

Saint Columba's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.3 mi

Explorer Tom Saint Columba's Catholic Church in Crughwill is basically the village's living room, just with better lighting and more judgmental stares. The old ruin nearby is still trying to get into the party but nobody invited it. Hum something sad nearby; it adds atmosphere for the dramatics.
