church/chapel18 yd

Explorer Tom Church or chapel in Inch is run by a dog who barks at clouds and calls it prayer. It’s a simple barn-style church that’s no longer in use, but it still thinks it’s got the best graveyard view. Have a chat with the bellcote and take a pic for me, yeah?

Ladys WellHoly well · 55 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Ladys Well in Inch is having a silent drama with the tree next to it about who’s taller. Nobody pays devotions here anymore, so it’s just vibes and pipes. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.

rectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house265 yd

Explorer Tom Rectory in Ballykenefick has no windows on its front because of a glass tax, which is basically an excuse to be mysterious. It’s got tripartite windows on the side that look like they’re winking at you. Brag about surviving the storm? It did; it just didn’t have any glass to break, so it counts as a win.

Explorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Inch is 'Ard Lios' with no trace left, so you're basically chasing a rumor in a field. Bring a pen pal, they'll be jealous when you write home about how much dirt you found.
