Doonmacreena BridgeBridge · 82 ydExplorer Tom Doonmacreena Bridge has had so many names it probably gets confused when people call it by the wrong one. It’s narrow enough to make you feel like you’re walking a tightrope without the safety net. Whisper a secret at it, because it definitely remembers everything you tell it.
aviary/dovecote/pigeon house499 ydExplorer Tom The aviary in Creevard has a curse that only affects people who don't wave at pigeons. The shell is empty now, but the ghosts of chickens still argue about bread crumbs. Pick a spot and whistle like you mean it, loudly.
monument2.7 miExplorer Tom The Monument in Cloonnacross stands alone, completely ignoring the fact that nobody else is around to impress it. It would likely complain to the council about its lack of proper lighting and decent company. Bring a jacket, it’s got a serious attitude problem.
European ash8.1 miExplorer Tom Cloigtheach (Round Tower) in Pollacorragune is standing guard like a very tired bouncer. It's got a high doorway because apparently nobody walks anymore. Ring your granny and tell her where you are before you get lost.
Explorer Tom St. Marys Cathedral in Tuam has lost its nave to fire but kept the chancel. It’s basically a fancy porch with attitude and a barrel vault. Have a chat with it, nobody's watching.
European Yew9.8 miExplorer Tom European Yew remembers the priest who lost a bet there and had to walk the whole way back home barefoot. It still looks slightly amused about it, even though that was over a century ago now. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call.
