Armorial plaque in CloonkeaArmorial plaque · 1 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Armorial plaque in Cloonkea is showing off its family tree like it matters. The Vikings probably got lost looking for it and blamed the fog. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch.

EnclosureEnclosure, large enclosure · 252 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Enclosure is basically invisible now, just a low rise and some nettles in the way. An avenue cuts through it to Cloonkea House, so it’s on the commute route for ghosts. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch.

Lismore CastleCastle, tower house · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Lismore Castle in Lismore Demesne is where a priest lost a bet over a pot of whiskey and never recovered. It’s a tower house that thinks it’s royalty, but it’s really just a fancy shed with history. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits to make it taste better.

The VicarageRectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house · 1.7 miShannon GroveCountry house · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Shannon Grove in Kilnaborris is showing off its canted entrance bay like it’s the best thing you’ve seen all day. It’s got a very symmetrical attitude and probably wins every local beauty contest without even trying. Toast it with a cup of tea.
