Kanturk Trades Union HallHall · 284 ydExplorer Tom Kanturk Trades Union Hall in Kanturk, County Cork is an 1881 social hub with a limestone date plaque that says it all. It looks like a big house; grab a pic of that plaque for me!
Greenane HouseHouse · 402 ydExplorer Tom Greenane House is a Victorian house from 1870. Sits next to Greenane Bridge. Has steeply-pitched roofs and fine gates. Retains its original form despite alterations. Looks like it’s keeping an eye on the bridge traffic.
Hanna SheehyMemorial · 787 ydBurial ground in Curragh (duhallow By., Clonfert Par.)Burial ground · 818 ydExplorer Tom Burial ground in Curragh sits inside a ringfort called Lisnamarve. There used to be eight rough headstones, but now they're all gone. The fort is still there, just waiting for someone to bring back the markers.
IndicatedFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1060 ydExplorer Tom Kilroe Graveyard was originally a Danish fort, according to an old field book. It’s now full of headstones and trees, so it’s basically a graveyard with a military past. Be respectful, unless you’re looking for Vikings in the dirt!
Kanturk CastleHeritage attraction · 1247 ydCastleCastle, unclassified · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Castle in Kilcolman is mentioned in books but nobody knows exactly where it is. It was in a 'castle field' near Rosnalee House until the 1920s. Now it’s just a field with secrets. Look for stones that look like they’ve seen things. Bring your detective hat.
Ballyheen Castle (Site of)Castle, unclassified · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Ballyheen Castle is just a scatter of stones judging your driving skills. It has strong opinions about the road leading to it, mostly that it’s too bumpy for its taste. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next disaster.
Burial ground in AssolasBurial ground · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Burial ground in Assolas, County Cork, is just a dip in the ground with no markers, which is very polite for a place full of dead soldiers. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
European Yew2.6 miExplorer Tom This European Yew has a grudge against a bishop who refused to visit because he said it looked 'too pretentious'. The yew never forgave him and still holds its breath. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't see it.
