Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in ShanaghobarravaneFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 397 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Shanaghobarravane is in tillage with mounds of dumped rubble in one corner. It looks like someone threw their junk into the ancient circle. Very unhygienic for a fairy dwelling, if you ask me.
Standing stone in BallymacshoneenStanding stone · 1264 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The stone in Ballymacshoneen is buried into the slope and backed by furze, looking like it’s hiding from the rain. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late to dinner with someone important.
signal tower1459 ydExplorer Tom Signal tower in Ballymacredmond, County Cork was built to warn of French invaders using balls and flags. It looks ruinous now but still has an imposing presence over the area. Bring your binoculars if you think you spot a flag!
Ballylangy HouseCountry house · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Ballylangy House sits in its own extensive grounds and looks like it’s waiting for a royal carriage to arrive. The doorcase is so ornate it might need its own ID card. Find the hidden garden path that definitely isn’t there.
Dunworly CastleCastle · 2.2 miExplorer Tom Dunworly Castle in County Cork might be related to Blackwater, but they probably do not speak much anymore. It looks like a stern uncle who hates it when you borrow his tools. Be nice.
Dunworly BeachBeach / strand · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Dunworly Beach has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a beach / strand with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.

Broad StrandBeach / strand · 2.7 miExplorer Tom Broad Strand has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a beach / strand with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Chilean myrtle3.8 miExplorer Tom This Chilean myrtle in Cork is acting like Saint Patrick personally planted it and expects a blessing. It says the saint called it 'a bit of a tourist trap' back then. Take a breath, it's older than your bad decisions.
Cork oak3.8 miExplorer Tom Cork oak here, and it's been hit with a hammer more times than my patience on Sunday mornings. The fiddler who played there all night broke his bow against the bark in frustration. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call about rent.
Timoleague AbbeyHeritage attraction · 5.3 miExplorer Tom Timoleague Abbey has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a heritage attraction with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
