Graveyard in Carrigane (muskerry East By.)Graveyard · 320 yd

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Carrigane has been keeping time since 1736, right by the River Bride. It’s got a stone wall that’s probably tired of holding up all those stories about the old church. Give it a pat on the way past, it's had a long life.

St Mary's Church of Ireland ChurchChurch/chapel · 333 yd

Explorer Tom St Mary's Church of Ireland Church is disused but still acting like the centre of the universe. It’s got a bell tower with pinnacles that look like they’re about to take off. Grand place for a nap, honestly.

Man-made underground passage in BarnagoreMan-made underground passage · 516 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Barnagore was found in 1988 when they lowered ground for a stock yard. It’s a stone-built chamber with a blocked creepway and an air vent. Looks like someone built a bunker but forgot the exit plan!

Man-made underground passage in Knockanemore (muskerry East By.)Man-made underground passage · 712 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Knockanemore was found in a gravel pit in 1970, which is like finding a hidden basement in a garden. It had five chambers connected by creepways, so it’s basically a cave system for tiny, angry people. Ring your granny and tell her where you are.

Burnt pit in Grange (east Muskerry By.)Burnt pit · 744 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Burnt pit in Grange is an oval hole that was nearly sold to a horse trader for its size. It’s full of dark soil and secrets it never meant to keep. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.

bridge1243 yd

Explorer Tom Bridge in Classes has a lightness and elegance that makes earlier bridges look like bricks. It would order a chipper and demand extra vinegar. Stand back so you don’t scare the elegance off with your breath.

Explorer Tom The bawn wall at Kilcrea is mostly intact, except for the bit that fell over from sheer boredom. Its New Year’s resolution was to stay standing, but it failed miserably again. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.

Kilcrea CastleWood · 3.2 miCarrigrohane Castle (in Ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 3.9 mi

Explorer Tom Carrigrohane Castle sits on a sheer limestone cliff looking very dramatic over the Lee river. It's had a lot of alterations, including a corner tower and some gun loops. I think it's been ransacked more than once!
