Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in PollremonFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 324 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Pollremon has been chewed up by a sand and gravel quarry. Go in good boots and better humour; the ground is treacherous.
Enclosure in Kildaree (ballymoe By.)Enclosure · 414 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Enclosure in Kildaree is just a muddy oval that’s giving up on life. It looks like a giant’s discarded frisbee stuck in the bog. Bring a map, get lost anyway, and pretend you meant to do it for the adventure.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Kildaree (ballymoe By.)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 875 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Kildaree has no official record, so it’s basically a ghost with no ID. I bet it brings a bottle of cheap wine to every party. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't see it waving hello.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cartron East,pollremonFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 941 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cartron East, Pollremon is on a ridge, looking like it's waiting for the next bus. It would say to the place that replaced it: 'You're not even as dramatic as I am.' Tell your mates you found it first, then deny everything if they actually show up.
Burial GroundGraveyard · 995 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Burial Ground in Kildaree is just sitting there being mysterious because nobody has written anything down about it yet. It would bring a flask and a bad attitude to any party. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.
CortoonWalking route · 1.9 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cortoon has caught my eye in County Galway. I bet a walking route with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Catholic Church of Christ the KingChurch/chapel · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Catholic Church of Christ the King has caught my eye in Kiltivna, County Galway. I bet a church/chapel with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
water pump2.4 miExplorer Tom Water pump in Curragh West has caught my eye in Curragh West, County Galway. I bet a water pump with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Checker HillMountain / peak · 2.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Checker Hill has caught my eye in County Galway. I bet a mountain / peak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Nature WalkWalking route · 2.9 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Nature Walk has caught my eye in County Roscommon. I bet a walking route with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Children's playground5.9 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Galway. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Dunmore CastleCastle, hall-house · 6.1 miExplorer Tom Dunmore Castle in Castlefarm is a massive keep that has been rebuilt more times than I've changed my mind about lunch. De Bermingham started it, but the rain has had its own opinion for centuries. Have a nosey, politely, and don't touch anything.
