Explorer Tom Mill in Glenville was run by Hudson-Kinahans and is now ruinous but still big on form and scale. The whole parish argued for weeks about who owned the mill race, and nobody won the argument.

Glenville Park Walled GardenGarden · 234 ydComputer-made pictureThe ManorFarmyard complex · 277 yd

Explorer Tom The Manor in Glenville has outbuildings so well-designed they’re basically showing off their imported stone dressings. It might have been a dwelling once, but now it’s just a very confident farmyard complex with a complete walled garden. Wave at the roof slates for me!

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Glenville handles a nosey neighbour by pretending it’s just a pretty patch of grass with some interesting rocks, which is a classic deflection move. It’s got that shy personality where it wants to be seen but doesn’t want to commit to the spotlight. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.

BullánStoup (present location) · 1736 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Bullán in Doonpeter is a stoup that was once a footbridge over the river. That's some serious multitasking! It also has a story about a woman forced to restore it by an unseen hand. Creepy stuff, mate.

Doon WellHoly well · 1759 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Doon Well in Doonpeter is right next to a graveyard and has a statue of Mary watching over quartz pebbles that people keep dropping. Take a breath of that air, it's older than your car.

Graveyard in Killuntin NorthGraveyard · 2.0 mi

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Killuntin North is just a circular outline on an old map, which means it’s basically a rumour with a fence. A man who saw the old graveyard described it as surrounded by an earthen fence, so he might have been hallucinating or just very imaginative. Have a chat with it, nobody's watching.

Castle (Site of)Castle, unclassified · 3.1 mi

Explorer Tom Castle in Ballynabortagh, County Cork has no trace, just pasture and mystery. I think the wind keeps picking on it because it’s jealous of how quiet it is. If anyone asks, Tom sent you to find something that isn’t really there.

Castle (in Ruins)Castle, unclassified · 3.9 mi

Explorer Tom Castle in Shanaclogh is playing hide-and-seek with me while wearing an ivy cape that’s doing all the heavy lifting. A Barry guy built it, but he clearly forgot to leave a key or a clue. Bring your camera and wear your most suspicious face for the sheep.
