Explorer Tom This fort in Lislevane is known locally as 'fort field' because only a semi-circular curve of the bank remains. The rest has vanished into the hillside, leaving you with half a circle and a lot of questions.

St Mary's Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom St Mary's Roman Catholic Church in Tirnanean is showing off its Gothic Revival muscles with some lovely limestone walls. It’s got stained glass that probably knows more secrets than I do. Check if the bellcote is still ringing in the wind!

Children's playground1.8 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.

English holly4.7 mi

Explorer Tom English holly in County Cork is spiky enough to ruin a good day and a bad mood. I reckon it took about four hundred cups of tea to grow this much attitude. Tell it a joke, it hasn't laughed since 1994.

Monteen CastleRuins · 4.9 mi

Explorer Tom Monteen Castle in County Cork is a ruin that refuses to stay down. It’s probably hiding behind the hedgerows having a laugh at our expense. Take a picture for me if you pass!

Monteen Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 4.9 mi

Explorer Tom Monteen Castle is a small ivy-clad tower near a river ford. It’s got vaults that don't quite reach the walls, which is architecturally embarrassing but charmingly lazy. Bring a flask of something warm and a story to swap.
