Explorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Scart would tell you it’s a very exclusive club for dirt. It just sits there judging your shoes from the side. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.

Earthwork in MaglassEarthwork · 436 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Earthwork in Maglass was skipped by a bishop who thought it looked too much like a giant potato mound. Now it just sits there, judging everyone else from its twenty-metre circle of dirt. Leave nothing but footprints and a bad pun.

ExcavationExcavation, miscellaneous · 869 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Excavation in Maglass was dug up because they were building a road and found a subcircular pit instead of gold. Someone wrote a bad poem about it that rhymed dirt with shirt. Tell it a joke, it's been a long time since anyone did.

Explorer Tom Architectural fragment in Magh West is literally one lonely brick from a castle, living rent-free inside a fancy house. It’s basically the world's smallest squatter with zero regrets. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.

Explorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Maglass is hiding a treasure that’s definitely a biscuit tin, not gold. I’m positive there’s a jar of jam buried right under that bank. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.

Explorer Tom Arabela House would tell Saint Patrick to keep his snakes and take its pedimented doorcase instead. It’s mid-Georgian style from 1760 and has a split-level basement full of secrets. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.

Explorer Tom Ballymacelligott Church has a cut-stone tower that looks like it’s trying to keep an eye on the square. If it ordered in a chipper, it would go for the extra gravy and no questions asked. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.

Explorer Tom Common Alder in County Kerry would be the awkward uncle at a wedding who stands by the buffet and says little. It loves wet feet and muddy banks more than you do. Go at sunset and thank me later.
