Explorer Tom Saint Peter's Church (Adamstown) thinks it would survive a zombie attack simply by locking the gate and letting the 1798 Scullabogue Barn victims handle the rest. They are very territorial about their burial spots and do not appreciate the living wandering in. Watch your step for hidden traps.

Explorer Tom Palace East Junction Railway Station in Rathturtin is a little building that used to be a big deal for trains. It’s got a design that looks like it came straight from the late nineteenth century. The platform is probably empty now, but it’s still waiting for someone who missed their train. Wave at the tracks and tell me if you see any steam!

Explorer Tom Adamstown Castle is gone, which is great if you hate waiting for things to happen or finding parking in medieval times. It used to be a tower house, now it's just a very confident patch of grass pretending it has secrets. Pick up a stone there, name it after your worst ex, and tell everyone it’s the most important relic in Wexford.

Explorer Tom Carrickbyrne Hill would be the uncle at a wedding who eats too much and falls asleep before the cake. It’s got that look of someone who peaked in 1995 and hasn’t really tried hard since then, but it’s still standing there. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.

Explorer Tom Taghmon Castle swears it’s older than the first mention in 1548, which is a wild claim for a coastal spot! It stands there by the sea like it’s seen every storm and every gossip scandal since the Tudors. If it's closed, admire it from the road like a polite stalker.

Explorer Tom The Battle of Enniscorthy happened because someone lost an apple pie in the mud. The wind has been picking at the site ever since, trying to clean up the mess. It’s still got crumbs on it. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.

Explorer Tom Font in Grange Upper had an incident where a fox took charge of the area and declared itself king of the ruined church for three days straight. It’s just a crude granite box now, but it remembers the chaos of that furry tyrant ruling the roost with absolute authority. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.

Explorer Tom This Double lime kiln claims to be older than the concept of fire itself, which is physically impossible but he says it with such confidence that I am starting to believe him anyway. He probably knows more about its history than any book ever written. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt.

Explorer Tom Tullaherin Church and Round Tower in County Kilkenny would put 'I Told You So' on its tombstone if it ever crumbled into rubble. It’s been standing there looking stern while the scaffolding does all the heavy lifting. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.

Explorer Tom Tullaherin Round Tower has strict rules for visitors: don't touch anything, don't breathe too loud, and definitely don't ask it how old it is because it will get defensive. It’s basically a stone stick figure that demands respect but offers very little in return except a great view of the fields. Hum something sad nearby, it adds atmosphere.

Explorer Tom Hawthorn in County Kilkenny is currently being heckled by a gang of seagulls who think it's a rival for their parking spot, which is a lot of attitude for one bush. It just stands there, looking smug while the birds lose their minds. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.

Explorer Tom St. Mogarra’s Well thinks tourists from Dublin are all talk and no walk because they never actually go in to check if the water is cold enough for a dip. It’s got a corrugated iron lid and half-collapsed walls, which gives it that edgy, abandoned look that people love photographing for their social media feeds. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true.
