New BridgeBridge · 59 ydExplorer Tom New Bridge in Athlumney bragged about surviving a storm so bad it made the river cry, but really it just dodged a few big waves. It’s got six arches and a lot of attitude for something made of stone. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want?
mill (water)72 ydCrossCross, Market cross · 190 ydExplorer Tom Cross in Townparks was once a market cross but now it’s just a piece of history in a museum. It probably thinks it deserves a better seat at the table. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.
Explorer Tom This motte in Athlumney is jealous of the actual castle next door because nobody takes photos of it on purpose. It’s just a big dirt cone that dreams of having a roof one day. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard from the river.

Round Tower1.4 miExplorer Tom Round Tower in Donaghmore has a long-standing grudge against the wind, which keeps trying to blow it over. It’s survived centuries, so let the clouds have their moment. Tell it a joke, it's been a long time since anyone did.
Liscartan CastleCastle, tower house · 2.3 mi
European Yew3.1 miExplorer Tom European Yew in County Meath once saw a farmer drop his lunch and swear for twenty minutes straight. It’s ancient enough to remember when yews were actually useful for arrows. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.
European Beech3.9 miExplorer Tom European Beech in County Meath would order a massive chipper with extra vinegar and pretend it didn’t enjoy the crunch. It’s got a very posh attitude for something growing in mud. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.
