St Brigid's Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 716 ydExplorer Tom St Brigid's Roman Catholic Church is having a rivalry with a more famous church down the road, probably over who has the better stained glass or steeple height. It was built by William Hague and his dad, which means it’s got that family teamwork vibe baked into every single archway and buttress. Ending idea, never copy its words
Aghalackan WestMountain / peak · 1126 ydExplorer Tom Aghalackan West is another peak in County Cavan, likely offering different perspectives than its eastern counterpart.
Aghalackan EastMountain / peak · 1548 ydExplorer Tom Aghalackan East is a peak in County Cavan that probably has some lovely sunsets to watch from up top.
IndicatedFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1645 ydExplorer Tom Fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Reask has strong opinions on modern buildings, especially since it’s hiding next to some beehive huts that look like alien eggs. It thinks they’re tacky, and honestly, who can blame it? It's free, it's odd, what more do you want?
Killynebber HouseHouse · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Killynebber House in Killynebber is a Victorian brick-and-render mix that thinks it’s better than its suburban cousins. That oriel window is definitely judging your posture from up there. The drama with the nearest tree is about who gets the sun first.
Bawn in MoynehallBawn · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Bawn in Moynehall is just a large moulded stone pretending it's the base of a turret. It would bring a can of soup to a party. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.
CastleCastle, unclassified · 2.2 miExplorer Tom Castle in Townparks has been replaced by a fair green, because who needs history when you have bouncy castles? Probably an O'Reilly place that got tired of being serious. Count the crows, then count again.
Owen Roe O'Neill graveMemorial · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Resting quietly in County Cavan, the Owen Roe O'Neill grave marks a legendary figure, with music forever echoing his name.
Fin Mc Cools FingersStone row · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Fin Mc Cools Fingers in Shantemon are said to be the hand of a giant who got stuck in the mud while trying to steal a sheep and never managed to get free. The stones are graded in height so they look like fingers, which is a bit creepy if you think about it too hard. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
Rambling at Farnham EstateVisitor information · 4.1 miExplorer Tom Wandering the Rambling at Farnham Estate, I bet you can still feel the ghostly presence of that former stately home.
Cucumber Magnolia4.4 miExplorer Tom Cucumber Magnolia in County Cavan is probably older than the concept of trousers, which is a wild claim but totally believable when you look at that face. It’s been standing there since before we figured out how to not smell. Go before the tourists find out.
Sycamore4.4 miExplorer Tom Sycamore in County Cavan thinks the road leading to it is a bit of a cheat. It’s probably muttering about the potholes every time a car goes past. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting, just don't drop your phone.
