The interior is raised by c. 1.5m above the surrounding ground level. The associated medieval church (KK022-018005-) is not visible at ground level.

Explorer Tom Church in Killaloe would ace a job interview with its tragic backstory. It was demolished so the new one could get the parking spot. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.

Saint Molua's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 62 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Molua's Catholic Church in Killaloe, County Kilkenny makes a spooky creaking sound at night. It’s probably just old wood settling into its slippers after a long day. Go with someone who loves old stories and not too much silence.

TobermoluaHoly well · 266 yd

Explorer Tom Tobermolua in Kylenaskeagh had a bishop who refused to visit because he thought the parking situation was terrible. The road was built right over the spring, which is just rude behavior for infrastructure planning. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.

Pedunculate Oak1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Pedunculate Oak in Kilkenny is stuck in a feud about who owns the best view. Two families are screaming at each other over its branches right now. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.

Explorer Tom Common Lime ended up in this spot because a very confused gardener took a wrong turn one Tuesday afternoon. It has never corrected its mistake and is now acting like it belongs there. Practise your Irish on it, it won't correct you.
