Corn Store107 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Corn Store in Drom is a dilapidated three-storey Z-shaped structure built into a slope near the coast. Smells like wet regret and old grain to me. Perfect detour when the satnav has a total meltdown.

Leap Inn/SheahanHouse · 123 yd

Explorer Tom House in Drom might have been a hotel or an inn, but now it’s just a big building with some recent shopfront alterations that are doing its best to hide its past. It’s still got those timber sliding sash windows, though. Tell it Tom remembers its former glory!

Explorer Tom Urell in Drom is a public house and house combined from 1870, with a gable front that looks like it’s about to dance. The timber shopfront is genuinely stunning if you know how to look.

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Brade is next to some woods and has headstones from the late 19th century onwards. It’s got a church in the middle, which makes it feel like a very serious little club that nobody wants to join, so bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.
