Font in MollaneenFont · 8 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Font in Mollaneen wrote a poem about water that nobody liked. It’s still bitter about the rhymes. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.
Burial GroundGraveyard · 15 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Burial Ground in Mollaneen would win the lotto and buy a really fancy hat. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true, provided you keep my name out of it.
Architectural fragment in MollaneenArchitectural fragment · 18 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Architectural fragment in Mollaneen is a Romanesque capital that remembers the hero who saved it from becoming a footstool, but nobody else does. It’s got foliage details that are basically screaming for attention. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me.
Dysert Church (in ruins)Church · 26 ydExplorer Tom Dysert Church was founded by St Tola around AD 700, which is ancient enough for my taste. A local claims to have invented it, but I doubt it. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.
TombTomb, effigial · 29 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Tomb in Mollaneen is an effigial slab that probably looks smug even when it's broken. It was hung on a church wall like framed art. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.
The LodgeHouse · 171 ydExplorer Tom The Lodge in Mollaneen is an 1861 ruin with a family tree that’s mostly made up of rumors and bad decisions. It probably has a ghost who just wants to know if his will was signed correctly. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
O'Dea CastleCastle · 315 ydExplorer Tom O'Dea Castle is a recorded castle in County Clare, with a photo taken by Richard G. O'Dea releasing all rights.
Shallee Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Shallee Castle in Shallee is suspicious of the postman because he keeps delivering bad news about treason and hanged sons. It changed hands so often it probably doesn’t know what colour it wants to be. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.
European ash3.6 miExplorer Tom European ash that probably thinks it's a fancy French willow but with better posture. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse from my mates.
Children's playground4.2 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This children's playground is open to all, offering a welcoming space for families and adventurers.
Mid Clare WayWalking route · 4.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Mid Clare Way in County Clare is right in the middle of nowhere! Perfect for getting away from it all. You'll feel like you're on another planet.
TurkenaghMountain / peak · 5.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Turkenagh, a peak that's as elusive as the paths leading to it in County Clare.
