Explorer Tom Castle in Townparks has been replaced by a fair green, because who needs history when you have bouncy castles? Probably an O'Reilly place that got tired of being serious. Count the crows, then count again.
Explorer Tom Lifeforce Mill in Lurganboy is the last of five mills left standing, so it’s basically the grandpa of Cavan industrial heritage. It sits right on the bank, looking smug about its survival. Have a peek at the water race if you’re feeling adventurous!
Sally West & Mr James for MenHouse · 381 ydExplorer Tom Sally West & Mr James is a house with a shopfront past that makes it feel like a celebrity. It’s got stucco decoration that screams 'I was here.' Stick around for the gossip!
CrossCross, Market cross · 413 ydExplorer Tom Cross in Townparks was once a market cross, selling things like turnips or maybe just opinions. Now it’s gone, leaving only a memory that smells of stale bread. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt into a puddle of nostalgia.
Owen Roe O'Neill graveMemorial · 519 ydExplorer Tom Resting quietly in County Cavan, the Owen Roe O'Neill grave marks a legendary figure, with music forever echoing his name.
Rambling at Farnham EstateVisitor information · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Wandering the Rambling at Farnham Estate, I bet you can still feel the ghostly presence of that former stately home.
Cucumber Magnolia2.3 miExplorer Tom Cucumber Magnolia in County Cavan is probably older than the concept of trousers, which is a wild claim but totally believable when you look at that face. It’s been standing there since before we figured out how to not smell. Go before the tourists find out.
Pedunculate Oak2.4 miExplorer Tom Pedunculate Oak in County Cavan has a retirement plan involving becoming a very expensive bench in a garden centre. It’s thinking about the future while you think about lunch. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse, like where the local council put the money.
Explorer Tom Fin Mc Cools Fingers is five stones graded by height in a conifer plantation. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted, because Fin definitely wasn't polite.
Clogh Oughter CastleCastle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 4.5 miExplorer Tom Clogh Oughter Castle sits on a tiny island in Lough Oughter, looking smug while de Lacys try to conquer Breifne. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call to your ex.
Cloughoughter CastleIsland castle ruin · 4.8 miExplorer Tom Cloughoughter Castle sits on an island in Lough Oughter, looking very smug about its isolation. I bet a fox took charge of the keys years ago and still hasn't let anyone in. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.
Lough OughterLake and island landscape · 5.0 miExplorer Tom Lough Oughter is just a big lake that's been sitting there judging everyone since forever, which makes it the perfect spot to feel small and slightly damp in County Cavan. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.
