The Old RectoryHouse · 1.2 miExplorer Tom The Old Rectory in Carbury brags about surviving storms that would have flattened a normal house into dust. It’s basically a brick fort with a hub-and-spoke fanlight and a massive ego attached. Stand still and list

Carbury HouseHouse · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Carbury House dominates the village like a king who never left his throne. The seagulls say it’s just a big fancy box with no secrets. Go before the tourists find out it’s just bricks and stone pretending to be grand.
Carbury National SchoolSchool · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Carbury National School has a family tree mostly made up of imaginary headmasters. It’s one of the earliest schools here, standing firm like a stubborn old uncle. Tell the next person you met a school that never left.

IndicatedHouse, fortified house · 1.5 miExplorer Tom House in Carbury gave up its corbels for Lent because it felt too heavy. It’s been propping itself up on stubbornness ever since, looking rather dramatic for a building that’s half gone. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.

Common Lime10 miExplorer Tom Common Lime in County Meath once hid a crate of smuggled whiskey in its roots during a particularly rainy century. The bark still smells faintly of rum and bad decisions. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
