IndicatedCairn, clearance cairn · 586 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cairn in Ballynageeragh would probably bring a very boring casserole to any party it ever attended. Make up your own legend about it and I’ll swear blind it’s true.

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cahercormick,glebe (dunkellin By.)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1116 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cahercormick, Glebe is hiding a biscuit tin of gold that definitely isn't there. The farm buildings took over the NE sector because they thought they were the main act. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Garrankyle WestFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1165 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Garrankyle West used to be a fort, now it's mostly a silage pit. The first owner must have had a brilliant escape plan. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in BallynahivniaFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1338 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ballynahivnia’s ringfort has a field wall running right over it, like a bad zipper on a jacket. The bank is only there at the south, so the rest is just vibes. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination.
Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Glebe (dunkellin By.)Fairy fort / stone ringfort · 1417 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Glebe has vanished into thin air, leaving only its ego behind. If it won the lotto, it’d buy a bigger hole and call it a renovation. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in LissalondoonFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1537 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Lissalondoon has a laneway cutting right through it, which is rude, like walking across someone's living room without knocking. The whole parish probably argued about who dug the ditch first, or if it was even worth the effort. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.
Saint Cleran'sOutbuilding · 1637 ydExplorer Tom Saint Cleran's outbuildings had a fox take charge of the stable block last winter. The pedimented breakfronts are just there to make the fox feel like a butler. If it rains, blame me for looking.
Strongfort Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Strongfort Castle was refurbished in the 1980s with concrete floors, so it’s now basically a modern flat with medieval pretensions. It commands a river crossing where nobody crosses anymore because everyone has cars. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn at the crenellations.
