Mogeely HouseCountry house · 204 yd

Explorer Tom Mogeely House in Mogeely Lower was built by Charles Henry Walsh and has a long porch with columns that looks like it wants a hug. It’s proud of its timber sash windows and doesn't care if you know that. Practise your bow, love.

Mogeely BridgeBridge · 362 yd

Explorer Tom Mogeely Bridge is all humpback and hidden messages that only local stonemasons understand. The arches are generous, but I suspect they’re holding back a secret about who really built it. Bring your imagination and maybe a ladder to check for graffiti.

Graveyard in Curraheen (kinnatalloon By.)Graveyard · 1754 yd

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Curraheen is stuck in a fairy dispute over who gets to park their invisible carts first, likely involving some very angry pixies with tiny law degrees. Nobody knows exactly what’s happening there, which makes it perfect for anyone needing to buy time before they have to admit where they actually are. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.

Castlebrook forestWood · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Castlebrook forest would be that person at a wedding who stands by the cake table eating all the frosting while pretending to look busy helping out. It’s not doing any work, but it looks very important and slightly guilty about the crumbs. Pop by and tell it it's looking well.

Sheanmore Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Sheanmore Castle had a poet fall into the ditch nearby who wrote a very bad poem about the mud and his dignity. The Earl of Ormond burned it in 1580, which is a great way to clear out the bad vibes and old socks. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.

Conna CastleCastle · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Conna Castle in County Cork keeps pretending it hasn't seen the new neighbour building its own wall three feet higher just to see who blinks first. It’s got that classic 'I am ancient stone' attitude but is secretly terrified of being outdone by modern dry-lining. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.

Graveyard3.0 mi

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Ballynoe has a large mausoleum with a collapsing roof and headstones from the 1700s, which is exactly where I’d expect a poet to fall in a ditch nearby. It’s still in use today. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.

Tallow HillMountain / peak · 3.1 mi

Explorer Tom Tallow Hill was once offered by a cow who thought she owned the deed because she had grazed there for forty years. The solicitor accepted, and now the hill has a weirdly bovine energy that you can feel in the wind. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.

Aghern CemeteryWood · 3.7 mi

Explorer Tom Aghern Cemetery is listed as a wood, which means the trees are probably too shy to dig graves properly. It would last two days on a reality show before someone ate a mushroom. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.

Mocollop Picnic SitePicnic place · 4.0 mi

Explorer Tom Mocollop Picnic Site has a New Year's resolution to stop letting people leave half-eaten sandwiches behind like they’re setting traps for the crows. It’s just a spot in County Waterford where you can sit and pretend the view is worth more than the parking fee. The grass is soft, the air smells of salt, and everyone there is pretending to be relaxed. A good place to forget your phone for ten.

Ballysaggartmore TowersVisitor information · 5.3 mi

Explorer Tom Ballysaggartmore Towers in County Waterford hosted a dramatic incident where a goat stole the keys to the gatehouse. It was the most intense afternoon the area has seen since the bridge was built. Take a mate and argue about what it was for.

St Bridgets WellHoly well · 5.9 mi

Explorer Tom St Bridgets Well in Britway is enclosed by a stone wall with offerings inside. Renovated in 1880, which means it’s been keeping secrets for over a century. Peek through the gaps and see what people left.
