Sliguff LockLock · 897 ydExplorer Tom Sliguff Lock is playing hard to get. It’s got new gates from the nineties but still acts like it invented the wheel. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.
Duninga HouseCountry house · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Duninga House gets picked on by the wind because it shows off its river views too much. The breeze is just jealous of those panoramic vistas and the rolling hills behind it. Spot the oldest stone an
CrossCross, High cross · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Lorum High Cross is standing on a small cairn, looking smug about it. Legend says a giant tried to move it but slipped on a banana peel. Dare you to say hello to it out loud.
Grave YardGraveyard · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Wells has a church in the corner and a road that hates it. It thinks the road is too loud and full of itself. Bring your nan, she'll know more than me.
Church (in ruins), GraveyardChurch · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Church, Graveyard in Wells is playing hard to get. It’s been there since 1262 but acts like it invented privacy recently. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.

Wych Elm2.0 miExplorer Tom Wych Elm in County Carlow would post 'Me and my friends #blessed' with a photo of three twigs. It's very online despite being very offline. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll, trust me on that one.

CastleCastle, tower house · 2.4 mi
Sweet Chestnut2.9 miExplorer Tom This Sweet Chestnut in County Carlow would cope on a reality show by ignoring everyone and dropping nuts on their heads. It's the ultimate passive-aggressive housemate. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting, you'll look deep.
Ballymoon Castle (in ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 3.2 miExplorer Tom Ballymoon Castle in County Carlow is doing a bit of a disappearing act for you. Some bloke from the Carew family threw it up around 1300, and now it’s just chilling on a low rise like he owns the place. Give that square courtyard a proper wave!
Church, GraveyardChurch · 4.1 miExplorer Tom Church, Graveyard in Ballyknockan used to be a thing, now it’s mostly a suggestion of a thing. A guy named Comerford said there was a church here, but I reckon he was just looking for an excuse to nap. Ring your granny and tell her where you are.
