FairviewHouse · 104 ydExplorer Tom Fairview in Gortnaclohy is a 1930s house with canted bay windows that look like they’re trying to hug the street. It’s all balanced façades and elegant chimneys, basically a picture-perfect home that’s probably judging your interior design choices from afar.
Jer BuckleyHouse · 124 ydExplorer Tom Jer Buckley house in Gortnaclohy is built as a pair, so it's got a built-in wingman. The shopfront is well-executed, like a tailor who actually knows what he's doing. Bring a pen to sign its guest book if you're lucky enough.
SkibbereenHistoric town · 220 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Skibbereen in Gortnaclohy has been around since the sixteenth century, which makes it older than most of your ancestors’ excuses. It was just a cluster then, now it’s a proper historic town. Dare you to say hello to it out loud.
Burial GroundGraveyard · 264 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Burial Ground in Gortnaclohy is on Chapel Lane and still in use, which means it doesn’t have time to be spooky, it’s too busy with paperwork. It would describe the 1800s to a teenager as 'before Wi-Fi was invented, and everyone died of boredom.' A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.

Faill a' TónacáinCliff · 3.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Faill a' Tónacáin has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a cliff with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Monterey Cypress3.7 miExplorer Tom This Monterey Cypress in County Cork is guarded by a superstition that you must wink left before entering. Locals swear by it, mostly because they don’t want to admit why. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.
