Man-made underground passage & stone enclosure in CroghfernMan-made underground passage & stone enclosure · 792 ydExplorer Tom Man-made underground passage & stone enclosure in Croghfern has a tunnel that definitely leads to somewhere cool, probably the pub.

St. John's Church Of Ireland ChurchChurch · 1.4 miExplorer Tom St. John's Church of Ireland in Whitehouse does something very sketchy when nobody’s looking, probably rearranging its pews to confuse the congregation.

Railway BridgeBridge · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Railway Bridge in Whitehouse is guarding a hidden treasure that I am ninety percent sure is just a rusty biscuit tin from 1954. It’s Grade B2, so don’t get too excited, but do look mysterious. Take a breath of that air; it’s older than your car.
