Historic buildingOfficially recorded historic building · 65 ydExplorer Tom This 1790 pair in Townparks thinks tourists from Dublin are all a bit too loud and smelly. The five-bay side is definitely the more glamorous one of the two siblings here. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and absolutely no plans for the rest of the day ahead.
Bank of IrelandBank/financial institution · 94 ydExplorer Tom Bank of Ireland in Townparks claims it’s cooler than that big fancy bank in Dublin. It’s just an L-shaped building having an identity crisis. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.

St. Bridgets WellHoly well · 3.7 miExplorer Tom St. Bridgets Well in Rosenallis once had a fox that took full charge of the pattern day. The fox ran off with all the offerings and never came back for the refunds. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.

Lea Castle (in ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 7.8 miExplorer Tom Lea Castle has circular angle towers that look like they’re winking at you. A fox took charge last Tuesday and seemed to enjoy the view. Tell it a joke, it's been a long time since anyone did.
BaunreaghcongMountain / peak · 8.2 mi
Ritual siteRitual site, holy tree/bush · 8.3 miExplorer Tom Clonenagh's holy ash tree contains water with healing powers, according to the local sheep who just eat it anyway. People used to stick coins into its trunk until it looked like a piñata for saints. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check your ID.
