mill (wind)337 ydExplorer Tom Mill in Termonfeckin is spinning its wheels and making a noise that sounds like a giant grinding its teeth at midnight. It’s a windmill base with big plans and zero wind, honestly. Have a wander and a wonder.
Rath HouseCountry house · 474 ydExplorer Tom Rath House tells its younger self to stop slouching and straighten that Venetian doorway. The central breakfront is an elegant entrance bay that doesn’t mess around. Best enjoyed with a glass of wine on the porch, admiring the symmetry.
CrossCross, High cross · 1040 yd
CastleCastle, tower house · 1201 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Termonfeckin is fighting a fairy dispute over parking rights on the ridge. The fairies say the driveway is sacred, which is nonsense. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
Standing StonesStanding stone, pair · 2.0 mi
Port OrielPicnic place · 2.7 miExplorer Tom Chapel, Graveyard in Carrickbaggot has an escape plan of its first owner involving a hole under the wall and a very fast horse. Have a nosey, politely, before the landowner decides you’ve been trespassing for too long on their quiet graveyard.
Sweet bay4.8 miExplorer Tom Sweet bay in County Louth would say in a job interview that it has excellent leaves and no management issues. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want? Just stand there looking impressed at its aromatic confidence.
European Yew4.8 miExplorer Tom European Yew in County Louth offers a shortcut that isn't a shortcut, just a long loop back to where you started. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it while admiring this ancient, confusing green maze.
