Old BarracksGates/railings/walls · 287 ydExplorer Tom Old Barracks in Clonroad Beg, County Clare is just walls and bastions from the 1880s. It’s got pistol loops that probably scare off more pigeons than soldiers. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.
Pro-Cathedral of Saint Peter and Saint PaulPresbytery/parochial/curate's house · 625 ydExplorer Tom Pro-Cathedral of Saint Peter and Saint Paul's presbytery has red brick with yellow banding that looks like a very confused chocolate bar.
