Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1910, having two-bay single-storey extension to rear. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed six-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows, bipartite to outer bays, with painted render sills. Square-headed tripartite six-over-one pane window to extension with flanking four-over-one pane timber sliding sash side sashes. Render canopy to square-headed door opening with replacement uPVC door. Square-headed door opening with timber battened door to extension. Square-profile painted rendered piers with recessed panels and ornate caps having double-leaf cast-iron gates. Painted rendered walls with render copings terminating in second pair of piers.
This regular façade of this house is enlivened by the diminishing bipartite openings which retain timber sash windows, and the early extension to the rear has an interesting tripartite window. The piers and ornate cast-iron gates enhance the setting of the house.

Mullins's BridgeBridge · 1386 yd

Explorer Tom Mullins's Bridge in Rathmorgan is a single-arch limestone beauty from 1850. It’s still carrying traffic over the old Dublin to Cork railway line. The rock-faced walls are all about texture and showing off some serious local masonry skills. Get a close-up!

IndicatedEnclosure · 1750 yd

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Castleharrison is a sub-rectangular blob of earth that straightens its sides like it’s trying to pass for modern architecture. Its favourite song is definitely 'I Am Not A Square'. Dare you to say hello to it out loud if you’re brave enough.

Glanmore HouseHouse · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Glanmore House in Ballynaboola West has two periods of life glued together at right angles, which is very awkward for its personality. The newer bit is bigger and prettier, so it probably looks down on the old section attached to its side. Bri-lliant mix of eras.

Holy Cross CemeteryGraveyard · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Holy Cross Cemetery is triangular, which makes it look like it’s trying to sneak away from the square ones. It’s got an older section inside it that’s basically a grandfather in a trench coat. Bring a map, get lost anyway, and try not to trip over your own feet.

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Churchtown is hosting a very exclusive party for the dead. Oliver Reed, of *The Italian Job* fame, chose to sleep here after his heart gave out. It’s got an 18th-century vibe and a ruined church in the middle. Knock on the iron gate politely if you’re feeling brave!

Liscarroll CastleCastle · 7.8 mi

Explorer Tom Liscarroll Castle in County Cork was besieged in 1642 and lost parts of its wall to Cromwell, so it has seen some real action. It probably hates the memory of cannonballs but still stands proud. Check the gatehouse.

Liscarroll Castle (in Ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 7.8 mi

Explorer Tom Liscarroll Castle is built by Barrys in the 13th century and looks like it's posing for a photo. The SE tower is missing, but the rest stands tall on limestone. Take a wide shot from the village!

Battle of LiscarrollMajor battlefield · 7.9 mi

Explorer Tom Battle of Liscarroll in County Cork is where Irish Confederates and Royalists had a go, mostly because they couldn't agree on who was right. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.
