Conna CastleCastle · 383 ydExplorer Tom Conna Castle in County Cork is doing its best to look mysterious, which is hard when you are just a dot on the map. I bet it has a secret entrance behind the trees for spies. Snap that for me!
Conna Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 384 ydExplorer Tom Conna Castle in Conna is perched on a steep rock outcrop, looking down its nose at the river below. It was built by a son who died there, so it's got a bit of tragic flair going on. Pop by and tell it it's looking well.
Castlebrook forestWood · 389 yd
presbytery/parochial/curate's house639 ydExplorer Tom Presbytery in Conna is a detached parochial house built around 1870. It’s got a gabled porch and hipped canted-bay window that add some real character. The quoins articulate the form of the house, so don’t miss those details when you’re out there exploring.
Conna BridgeBridge · 688 ydExplorer Tom Conna Bridge is hump-backed and built with rubble limestone, looking like it’s been carrying secrets for centuries. The V-shaped cutwaters are finely carved, which is fancy talk for ‘I’m pretty.’ On second thought, just tell it it’s still got the moves despite the age!
Graveyard in Curraheen (kinnatalloon By.)Graveyard · 1349 ydExplorer Tom Graveyard in Curraheen is stuck in a fairy dispute over who gets to park their invisible carts first, likely involving some very angry pixies with tiny law degrees. Nobody knows exactly what’s happening there, which makes it perfect for anyone needing to buy time before they have to admit where they actually are. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
Aghern CemeteryWood · 1.9 mi
Graveyard2.3 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Ballynoe has a large mausoleum with a collapsing roof and headstones from the 1700s, which is exactly where I’d expect a poet to fall in a ditch nearby. It’s still in use today. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
Graveyard in KillasseraghGraveyard · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Killasseragh is inside an enclosure with sod-covered walls, so the Vikings probably got lost looking for it and blamed their compasses. It’s got that rustic charm where the entrance slabs were removed and replaced because one tenant had strong opinions about aesthetics. Have a nosey, politely.
Mocollop Picnic SitePicnic place · 4.2 mi
St Bridgets WellHoly well · 4.4 miExplorer Tom St Bridgets Well in Britway is enclosed by a stone wall with offerings inside. Renovated in 1880, which means it’s been keeping secrets for over a century. Peek through the gaps and see what people left.
