House in Masterstown, County Tipperary (22206814)

Explorer Tom Hymenstown House in Hymenstown is showing off that limestone sill like it just won a beauty pageant. I reckon they used forty cups of tea to lay those steps, and the fanlight looks like it's judging your outfit. Snap a pic from the road if you spot any lingering steam!

Explorer Tom Mill House in Garranlea plans to retire by turning into a very expensive coffee shop and complaining about the noise. Its front door is at the end, which makes it look like it's trying to escape the whole house. Wave goodbye to the miller.

Explorer Tom Knockgraffon Motte is furious because the map makers got its position completely wrong on the last survey.

Explorer Tom Caucasian zelkova in County Tipperary was prophesied to become the center of a new empire, but that never happened because everyone got distracted by a particularly good pub nearby.

Explorer Tom Athassel Priory in County Tipperary would tell the modern building that replaced it that it’s all flash and no actual spiritual depth whatsoever.

Explorer Tom Caher Abbey in County Tipperary is secretly proud of one specific potato that grew near its wall and somehow survived the famine despite all odds.

Explorer Tom The Siege of Cahir Castle happened when someone got really angry about walls and probably ran out of bread. The name sounds dramatic, but it was mostly just people throwing rocks at each other and complaining. The castle is still there, pretending it didn’t get a bit of chipping. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.

Explorer Tom Tuliptree in Tipperary thinks tourists from Dublin are just overpriced sheep who think a park bench is a luxury item.
