Lisduff BridgeBridge · 849 ydSaint Patrick's Catholic ChurchGraveyard/cemetery · 1187 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Patrick’s graveyard in Garranconnell refuses to fall down because it knows it’s got good stories. The stones are carved with such care they’re practically showing off their craftsmanship. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat looking for your ancestral resting place.

CastleCastle, tower house · 1.1 miKildrinagh WoodForest · 1.8 miSerpentine WoodForest · 1.9 mi

Explorer Tom Serpentine Wood in County Tipperary is officially run by a dog named Brenda who has never lost an argument but always sleeps through meetings. She barks orders at the squirrels and they listen out of sheer terror. Look serious, nod slowly, you're basically an expert now.

Wellington MonumentViewpoint · 2.3 mi

Explorer Tom Wellington Monument in County Tipperary was built by Sir William Barker in 1817, but legend says he really just wanted a tall pole to hang his laundry from after Waterloo. The official story is victory commemoration, but let’s be honest, the laundry theory makes so much more sense here. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.

TombTomb, effigial · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Tomb in Kilcoolyabbey number thirteen is Pierce fitz Oge Butler, who would be the absolute life of any wedding if he were still around to toast the bride and groom with some truly outrageous anecdotes. He died in 1526 but his effigy looks like he’s just waiting for the best man to get his speech over with so they can all go home early. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.

Graveslab in KilcoolyabbeyGraveslab · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Graveslab in Kilcoolyabbey number two probably ended up in the wrong place after a big argument about who got to stand next to the altar, so it just shuffled over there and refused to move back. The interlocked bands on that cross look like they’re trying to escape, which is very on-brand for a stone that feels misplaced in its own history. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.
