Cross in KillerrigCross · 6 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cross in Killerrig has initials T and K on it from modern times. A fox took charge of this graveyard once, I swear. Pop by and tell it it's looking well for an old rock.
Church (in Ruins), GraveyardChurch · 16 ydExplorer Tom Church, Graveyard in Killerrig has an east gable and some foundations, which is about as exciting as watching paint dry. It’s roughly north of centre, so if you’re lost, just go left. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.
Cist in KillerrigCist · 182 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cist in Killerrig was found alongside another one but got destroyed, which is a rivalry with a more famous place that never even saw the light. It's just a memory of a vessel now. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice at being forgotten by everyone.
Site of CastleCastle, unclassified · 962 ydExplorer Tom The site at Killerrig is a rectangular patch of trees, so it's basically a forest with commitment issues. It would tell a teenager that the 1800s were all about bad hair and worse manners. Let me know if my made-up gossip checks out.
Children's playground1072 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Children's playground in County Carlow feels like it’s waiting for the next big adventure to begin.
Catholic Church of Saint John the BaptistChurch/chapel · 1173 ydExplorer Tom Saint John the Baptist in Slaneyquarter has a bellcote that probably rings for no one but the sheep. It was renovated in 1980 because it got tired of looking old and decided to freshen up. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.
Duckett's Grove Walled GardensGarden · 1.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Duckett's Grove Walled Gardens in County Carlow are keeping their secrets close. Rumor has it the ivy grows faster if you whisper your name to it. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Russellstown ParkGate lodge · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Russellstown Park gate lodge has four Tuscan columns that look like they're waiting for a chariot to arrive in 1836. Give it a pat on the way past, it's had a long life guarding nothing but secrets.
Cork oak2.0 miExplorer Tom Cork oak tree is basically a giant sponge wearing a suit and tie. If it were a person at a wedding, it would be the uncle who drinks too much champagne. Tell it a joke, it’s been a long time since anyone did and it needs the laugh.
Knockpatrick HillMountain / peak · 4.6 miComputer-made picture
White willow4.8 miExplorer Tom White willow in County Carlow claims to be older than the concept of time itself, which is a bold claim for a shrub. I believe it because I'm tired. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever, even if you just guessed.
