Aghadown HouseHouse · 1163 ydExplorer Tom Aghadown House in Aghadown is a vernacular house that tried too hard to look fancy around 1900. The porch window is there, but it looks like it’s judging your life choices. If you ask for a job, tell them you know how to sweep.
Westfield HouseCountry house · 1203 ydExplorer Tom Westfield House in Hollyhill has a blank entrance front because someone changed their mind about doors. It’s got a hipped roof and symmetrical façade, but the entrance is a mystery. Have a laugh at its confusion!
Monterey Cypress1.0 miExplorer Tom This Monterey Cypress in County Cork is guarded by a superstition that you must wink left before entering. Locals swear by it, mostly because they don’t want to admit why. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.
Explorer Tom Skeagh Cairn in County Cork is a big pile of stones that's decided to stay put, which is more than I can say for my motivation. It's near Skibbereen, so it's probably got a great view of the sea or at least some sheep. Wave at the cairn!
Inishbeg GardensGarden · 2.2 miComputer-made picture. It does not show this garden.Explorer Tom Inishbeg Gardens has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a garden with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Kilcoe Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Kilcoe Castle is on that same little island with a conjoined tower. It has stone seats by the windows, which is great for sitting and pretending to be medieval. The stairs go up to the third floor. Watch your step; the past can be slippery.
Kilcoe CastleCastle · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Kilcoe Castle on Mannin Beg in County Cork is perched on an island and looks absolutely dramatic against the sky. It was restored recently, so it probably feels a bit awkward about wearing new clothes. Take a wide shot.
Ladys Well (Site of)Holy well · 2.5 miComputer-made picture. It does not show this holy well.Explorer Tom Lady's Well in Creagh was on an 1842 map but has no remains now, just pasture. The Lady must have moved out! Check the slope near that ruined church and see if you can spot any lingering holy vibes.
KnockomaghMountain / peak · 3.8 miExplorer Tom Knockomagh has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Children's playground4.0 miComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Ballydehob HarbourVisitor information · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Ballydehob Harbour has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a visitor information with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Ballydehob's 3-Arch Road BridgeVisitor information · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Ballydehob's 3-Arch Road Bridge has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a visitor information with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
