Clonmore Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 16 ydExplorer Tom Clonmore Catholic Church in Oldtown hears everything through the walls because it has no secrets. It was built in 1805 and still hasn't stopped gossiping about the belfry. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up for good.
Bullaun stone in KillalongfordBullaun stone · 786 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Killalongford's bullaun stone took a holiday to Wicklow and never came back, leaving this townland feeling a bit left on read. It’s basically a ghost with a museum membership card. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place.
Mound in KillalongfordMound · 786 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Mound in Killalongford was levelled during land clearance, so imagine a hidden tunnel to the pub underneath it all. A bullaun stone was found and moved away, leaving just the rumour behind. Have a look and decide if I was lying about the tunnel.
Cross-slab in Glebe (rathvilly By.)Cross-slab · 832 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cross-slab in Glebe is a Latin cross in relief. Imagine it posting 'Just vibing on the east face' to its followers. Wave at the cows, they’re the real locals here in the Glebe.
Ogham stone in Glebe (rathvilly By.)Ogham stone · 842 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ogham stone in Glebe has a name that might be Maqi-Treni, which sounds like a bad hair product. The inscription is weathered away, so it’s basically a mystery novel with no ending. Wave at the cows, they're the real locals.
Saint John's Church (Clonmore)Church/chapel · 876 ydExplorer Tom Saint John's Church (Clonmore) in Glebe has a tower with crenellations because apparently, pointy arches weren't scary enough for the locals in 1812. The inside was renovated in 1900, but the font is still doing its thing. Tell your mates you found it first.
Clonmore Castle (in Ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 996 ydExplorer Tom Clonmore Castle in Carlow is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat and nobody will check your ID.
Davis HillMountain / peak · 1.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Davis Hill is a peak in County Carlow; perhaps a farmer named Davis planted this spot with trees centuries ago for shade.
SeskinMountain / peak · 1.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Seskin has caught my eye in County Wicklow. 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.
European Beech4.5 miExplorer Tom European Beech has caught my eye in County Wicklow. I bet a european beech 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.
Sycamore4.6 miExplorer Tom Sycamore has caught my eye in County Wicklow. I bet a sycamore 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 playground4.7 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Wicklow. 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.
