Baggotstown HouseCountry house · 743 yd
Ballyvulhane BridgeBridge · 805 ydExplorer Tom Ballyvulhane Bridge in Ballyvulhane thinks Dublin tourists are all talk and no walking. Those round arches were rebuilt in 1922 because of a Civil War attack, which is fancy! Best enjoyed with a snack you bought from a van that smells like diesel.
Milltown ParkCountry house · 1077 ydExplorer Tom Milltown Park has seagulls that constantly rate its classical proportions and mostly give two stars. It was built by Charles Frederick Anderson, who clearly loved a good column. Give it a pat on the way past.
Kilballyowen HouseOutbuilding, stables · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Kilballyowen House nearly sold itself as a horse stable because the main house got demolished in the seventies. It's now just fancy stables with zero shame about its demesne past. Ring your granny a bell.

Ballygrennan Castle (in ruins)Bawn · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Ballygrennan Castle bawn smells like old socks and wet dog, according to Tom, but he swears it’s just historical atmosphere. The circular staircase is particularly good at making you dizzy if you’re not careful. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.
KnockainyMountain / peak · 1.7 mi
Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 4.2 miExplorer Tom Fantstown Castle would describe itself to a stranger as 'slightly damp, historically significant, and currently unavailable'. It’s got a bit of an ego about its muddy foundation. Leave nothing but footprints and a bad pun.
Áine and Gearóid Iarla: Lough GurLegend location · 4.2 miExplorer Tom Áine and Gearóid Iarla: Lough Gur has a goddess for the lake and a sleeping lord in the old stories. I thought I was coming to admire water and stones. Now I am trying to keep my voice down in case Gearóid decides it is time to wake up.

Ladys WellHoly well · 9.0 miExplorer Tom Ladys Well in Ballylanders in Limerick is in a churchyard with statues of Our Lady, looking very dignified. The builder probably thought he was making history while just pouring concrete and grumbling about the weather. Bring your nan, she'll know more than me.
European Yew24 miExplorer Tom European Yew here, planning retirement by just standing still for another five hundred years. It says it's saving up leaves for a big trip to the afterlife. Stick around for the light changing, it's a slow burn show.
