Cross-slab in BaltimoreCross-slab · 19 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cross-slab in Baltimore is in Tullagh church, showing off its expanded cross terminals like it’s about to take a bow. It has a rivalry with bigger slabs but wins on charm anyway. Perfect place to be dramatically windswept.
Glebe HouseRectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house · 205 ydExplorer Tom Glebe House in Baltimore is where the clergy kept their secrets and their classical doorcase. The local sheep probably think it’s just another big rock with a roof. Have a wink at it if you pass; the vicar won’t mind, I promise.
water pump533 ydExplorer Tom Water pump in Baltimore has a curved handle that looks like it’s waiting for you to lift the world. Before mains water, this thing was basically the local celebrity. Bring a note for the least favourite visitor who always forgets to pay their tab.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in BaltimoreFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 540 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort in Baltimore is completely inaccessible due to overgrowth. It’s on a headland with great views but hidden by brambles. Locals call it The Lios Field, so keep your eyes peeled for the bank!
Castle (in Ruins)House, fortified house · 838 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Baltimore is a rectangular house on a rocky prominence overlooking the harbour. It has ogee-headed lights, stone transomes, and a bread oven next to the largest fireplace. The bartizan has gun loops. It looks like it’s ready to fire on passing yachts with toast.
Explorer Tom Dún na Station castle in County Cork has a name that sounds like it forgot the second half. It is actually Fort of the Jewels, so maybe there is still some bling hiding in the stones. Dig carefully.

The BeaconBeacon · 1.4 miExplorer Tom The Beacon in Baltimore is known as 'Lot's Wife,' which sounds like a biblical drama but it’s just a navigation light. It’s been guiding ships for over a century, so it’s seen some bad decisions. Two families feuded over who got the best view of it. Wave to it, it likes attention.
