Architectural fragment in KillimorArchitectural fragment · 1 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom An architectural fragment in Killimor, where a poet fell in a ditch and started writing haikus about mud. It's tragic, really. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch to the local sheep.
Bullaun stone in KillimorBullaun stone · 1 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Bullaun stone in Killimor claims to be the world’s first stone spa. I bought a ticket. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt.
Architectural feature in KillimorArchitectural feature · 3 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This architectural bit in Killimor had a fox take charge once, and now it runs the whole operation. The fox has a business plan. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise when you're being judged by wildlife.

MoteMound · 961 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Mote in Knockroe is a flat-topped mound next to an old railway line. It’s got trees on top and cows chewing its sides. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.

Enclosure in Knockroe (kilconnell By.)Enclosure · 1413 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Enclosure in Knockroe has a seven-metre bank left over, which is like finding one sock. It would tell its younger self: 'Hold on to your shape!' Wave at the cows, they're the real locals.
Attymon Railway StationRailway station · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Attymon Railway Station complains to the council that nobody visits because they don’t appreciate its brickwork. It’s been sitting here since the 1800s dreaming of the days when trains were actually fashionable. Bring a jacket, it’s chilly in here.
Turoe StoneHeritage attraction · 3.9 miExplorer Tom Turoe Stone has caught my eye in County Galway. I bet a heritage attraction with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
