Catholic Church of the Sacred HeartChurch/chapel · 30 yd

Explorer Tom Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart in Darrary is hiding some stunning stained glass windows inside. The arcades are carved nicely to guide your eye, and there’s a standing stone nearby that looks confused. Get a shot of that stone!

Lios na gCon Ring FortArchaeological place · 308 yd

Explorer Tom Lios na gCon Ring Fort in County Cork is beautifully reconstructed, apparently. It looks too perfect for my taste, like it was built by a committee. Take a photo of that suspiciously neat entrance wall!

Clonakilty Agricultural CollegeLecturer's house · 576 yd

Explorer Tom Clonakilty Agricultural College's lecturer's house is made of corrugated-iron, which sounds cheap until you see that pedimented veranda. It’s a rare domestic use for tin, making it look like a fancy barn. Bring a sense of wonder, because this bird refuses to leave the spotlight!

Explorer Tom Ballinroher Castle in Ballinoroher sits on rising ground near the Argideen River. It’s a four-storey tower with spiral stairs and a fifth floor over the lobby. It belongs to the Sliocht Inghine Ui Chruimin clan.

Ballinoroher CastleCastle · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Ballinoroher Castle in County Cork was built by MacCarthy Reaghs to guard the pass between Bandon and the southwest. Dermot MacCarthy made a grave judgement error here in 1611, probably involving bad bets or worse wine.

Explorer Tom Stone Circle in Templebryan North is nine stones forming a perfect circle of gossip. Four are still standing; the rest went home early. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.

Battle of the Big Cross (1798) Memorial MonumentMonument · 2.3 miEnglish holly3.2 mi

Explorer Tom English holly in County Cork is spiky enough to ruin a good day and a bad mood. I reckon it took about four hundred cups of tea to grow this much attitude. Tell it a joke, it hasn't laughed since 1994.
