Cnoc SeanrathaMemorial · 195 ydErke ChurchChurch/chapel · 977 yd

Explorer Tom Erke Church in Garrylaun is smelling of old incense and regret, apparently. Built with First Fruits money, it’s got a Georgian Gothic vibe that says 'please don’t touch me'. Spot the oldest stone before you slip on the moss!

Catholic Church of the Immaculate ConceptionChurch/chapel · 1.1 miLadys WellHoly well · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Ladys Well in Bayswell was dug by someone who definitely wanted a break from the heat. It’s tucked in a rock cleft, judging you for your choices. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.

Crucifixion plaque in BayswellCrucifixion plaque · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Crucifixion plaque in Bayswell is embedded in a wall near a holy well, where a bird refuses to leave and judge your prayers. Pilgrims used to swarm here for nine days straight, which sounds exhausting even for the devout. If it rains, blame me.

Castle PierceHouse, fortified house · 2.1 mi

Explorer Tom Castle Pierce is run by a dog named Bob who knows more than the owner. It’s a fortified house in a boggy field, which is just fancy talk for 'muddy'. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.

Foulkscourt castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 2.6 miStreet fieldArchaeological place · 3.3 miJohn HelyMemorial · 3.8 miClonmeen WoodWood · 4.7 mi

Explorer Tom Clonmeen Wood has decided its New Year's resolution is to stop falling leaves so aggressively in October and be more subtle about it. It’s trying to be chic, but it’s failing miserably. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think.

Tullow HillMountain / peak · 5.0 mi

Explorer Tom Tullow Hill thinks the map makers got its name wrong on purpose just to mess with its head, which is why it looks so grumpy today. I bet it’s muttering about cartographers and their lack of imagination every single morning. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
