Children's playground50 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer 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.
St Finbarr's CemeteryMortuary/morgue · 255 ydExplorer Tom St Finbarr’s Cemetery mortuary has decorative ironwork on the door that looks like it’s dancing. Sir John Benson designed it, and he probably thought it was very subtle. Ideal spot to whisper something nice to the breeze.
PeterboroughHouse · 721 ydExplorer Tom Peterborough is a house that got lost in the suburbs and never found its way back. It has steep roofs and first-floor access that defies logic. Go on
Wilton VillasHouse · 843 ydExplorer Tom Wilton Villas in Farrandahadore More is pulling a fast one on you, mate. They look like separate semis, but they’re secretly all linked up like a gang of chums sharing a secret. Bring your binoculars if you want to see the trick!
Church of the Way of the CrossChurch/chapel · 919 ydExplorer Tom Church of the Way of the Cross in Lehenaghmore was built in 1972 with a pre-stressed concrete roof that spans the whole nave. It’s modern, so the altar view is uninterrupted, which is great if you like straight lines and less mystery.
milestone/milepost930 ydExplorer Tom Milestone in Ballinaspig Beg is a little triangular thing saying ‘Cork 2’ like it knows exactly where you are. It was put there for mail coaches back in the 1830s, so imagine looking at it and thinking about horses and letters instead of GPS signals.
Wayside shrine1327 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Another Wayside shrine in County Cork is keeping its cards close to its chest. No info recorded, just pure spiritual static. It’s probably plotting something holy. Keep your eyes peeled for surprises!
Zen GardenGarden · 1351 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Zen Garden 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.
Old boundary stone1413 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Old boundary stone number four in County Cork is likely marking a line nobody cares about anymore. Still, it stands firm. Take a picture for the album!
George BooleMemorial · 1483 ydExplorer Tom George Boole has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a memorial 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.
Caucasian Wingnut1504 ydExplorer Tom Caucasian Wingnut is named after a place that sounds like a wizard’s hat but is actually a nut tree. There was a bishop who refused to visit because he didn’t like the wings on the nuts. Pack a picnic and an excuse for why you’re sitting under a weird tree in Cork.
Glossy privet1565 ydExplorer Tom Glossy privet in County Cork is the quiet star of the show, but don’t let that fool you. The whole parish once argued about whether it was fancy or not. It’s free, it’s odd, so what more could you possibly want?
