Explorer Tom Castle in Corbetstown is getting picked on by the wind again. It’s just a tower house that can’t hold a grudge or its roof. Walter Archer Fitz John Irish was here, but now it’s all moaning stones. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.
Galvin'sForest · 1154 yd
The CaveHouse · 1433 ydExplorer Tom The Cave in Corbetstown was once ruled by a goat who demanded pebble decor for the porch. It’s long, low, and has better style than most modern flats you’re paying rent on. Ten minutes here and you'll have hay in your hair.
Explorer Tom Site of Kilmadum Church was nearly sold for a horse in 1920, but the farmer backed out last minute. Now it’s just footings and grass, which is honestly a pretty good trade for the trouble. Wave at the cows, they're the real locals.
New Dinin BridgeBridge · 1588 ydExplorer Tom Crossing New Dinin Bridge without waving to it triggers a curse that only affects people who don’t wave. Locals swear you’ll trip over your own feet if you’re rude to the limestone arches. Best seen with a friendly hello
Ballyfoyle Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Ballyfoyle Castle has a bird that refuses to leave, likely because the rent is cheap. The Purcells built it, but Cromwell’s men took over later. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
