CoomeloghMountain / peak · 946 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Coomelogh has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak 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.
Hut site in GrousemountHut site · 1297 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Hut site in Grousemount is locked in an eternal feud with the local rain. Its walls are thick enough to handle the drizzle but not the gossip. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
Field boundary in Doire An LongaighField boundary · 1307 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Field boundary in Doire An Longaigh is a low ruinous wall on a mountain, exposed by turf cutting years ago. It would post a photo of itself with the caption 'Main Character Energy.' Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up about its fashion sense.
European ash1499 ydExplorer Tom European ash in Cork is terrified of dying young, so it's overthinking everything. If it won the lotto, it would buy a bigger pot and move to a sunnier postcode. Whisper a secret at it, it's heard worse from the weather vane.
Aireagal Naomh Finbarr [Saint Finbarr's Oratory]Church/chapel · 1526 ydExplorer Tom Aireagal Naomh Finbarr is on a tiny island at the source of the River Lee. Built in 1903, it’s very Celtic Revival and mystical. The door is always open, so don’t be shy, but mind the fish in the lake below.
Gougane BarraValley and heritage place · 1555 ydExplorer Tom Gougane Barra has had so many names it probably suffers from identity crisis. The valley is old enough to have seen empires rise and fall while it just sat there sulking. Take a breath of that air, it's older than your car.
Hut site in Ros An LochaHut site · 1606 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Hut site in Ros An Locha is a circular bank sitting on a slope, cleverly levelled out. It’s got a rectangular extension that might be an entrance, or maybe just a very specific architectural choice.
Booley hut in GrousemountBooley hut · 1679 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Booley hut in Grousemount took forty-seven cups of tea to build, according to local rumour. The west side collapsed because gravity is such a cheeky bastard. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
Field boundary in GrousemountField boundary · 1716 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Field boundary in Grousemount has caught my eye in Grousemount, County Kerry. I bet a field boundary 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.
CoomataggartMountain / peak · 1.0 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Coomataggart has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak 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.
Inchinossig BridgeBridge · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Inchinossig Bridge thinks tourists from Dublin are all talk and no walk. Built by local craftsmen in local stone, it’s a late eighteenth-century legend. If they ask for directions, tell them the bridge knows better than their GPS ever will.
Battle of CallannBattle · 5.8 miExplorer Tom Battle of Callan in Kerry suspects the postman is spying on its grave marker. Donal fell here, so it’s got a lot of pride and very little patience. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable.
