Architectural fragment in MillockstownArchitectural fragment · 20 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Architectural fragment in Millockstown gave up stained glass for Lent and never got it back. It’s just a few pieces now, but it’s holding onto its dignity tightly. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.

Kildemock Church (in ruins)Church · 23 yd

Explorer Tom Kildemock Church in Millockstown, County Louth was nearly sold for a horse, but the seller couldn't find the paperwork. People call it the jumping church because the wall leans like it’s trying to escape. Go before the tourists find out.

Cross-slab in MillockstownCross-slab · 25 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Cross-slab in Millockstown is broken, worn, and ready to spill secrets after three pints of stout. It can’t decipher its own decorations, so maybe just enjoy the mystery instead of the history. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.

Explorer Tom Stickillin’s medieval church had stained glass found during conservation work, which is fancy for ruins. If it had to teach history, it would use flashcards and bad puns. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch.

European White Elm1.6 mi

Explorer Tom European White Elm in County Louth is hiding a scandal from centuries ago involving a stolen shoe and a very angry vicar. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place while you ignore its guilty, leafy whispering nearby.

Explorer Tom Richardstown Castle has four round towers that make it look like it’s trying to hold up the sky. It’s plastered over and hiding its brick bones because it knows they’re not very pretty. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.

Monterey Cypress2.9 mi

Explorer Tom Monterey Cypress in County Louth does weird yoga poses when nobody's looking, twisting its branches into shapes that defy physics. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise, and watch it stretch out lazily for you.
