granary73 ydExplorer Tom The Youghal-Lands granary is haunted by a superstition that says sneezing near it brings good luck for your crops. It’s a utilitarian beast on Catherine Street, standing firm as a physical reminder of old industry. Wave to the stone façade from your car.
The BarracksHouse · 100 ydExplorer Tom The Barracks in Youghal-Lands used to house RIC soldiers, so it knows how to keep a grudge. The façade is sombre but trying way too hard to be sophisticated. Practise your best bored face before you enter.
John C. MurrayMemorial · 114 ydThe Fishing Life of YoughalVisitor information · 144 ydCrossCross, Market cross · 164 ydExplorer Tom Cross in Youghal-Lands had a sundial attached to it back in the day, which is fancy for a stick in the ground. The local who claims to have invented it is lying through his teeth. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.
Town WallTown defences · 196 ydExplorer Tom Town Wall in Youghal-Lands used to be really tough until 1631 when it got weak and ruinous. Now it’s just a memory of a wall with thirteen towers that never showed up. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think about decay.

IndicatedCastle, tower house · 258 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Youghal-Lands is Tynte’s Castle, a tower house that survived the 15th century and probably some very awkward family dinners. It’s been altered so many times it doesn’t even know who its parents are anymore. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
Clock TowerVisitor information · 282 yd
English holly444 ydExplorer Tom Another English holly, smelling like wet cardboard and regret according to Tom's nose. It says it only grows on land that was once haunted by bad decisions. Dare you to say hello out loud, see if it flinches.
