Rincolisky Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 740 ydExplorer Tom Rincolisky Castle is perched on the Roaringwater Bay, looking like it’s about to jump into the sea and run away from its problems. It’s two storeys high and clearly missed the third one it used to have. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination.

Rincolisky CastleCastle · 746 ydExplorer Tom Rincolisky Castle in County Cork is an Ó Driscoll fortress on a headland by the water. The name means 'headland on the corner,' which sounds like a great place to get lost.
Fish-pond in WhitehallFish-pond · 761 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fish-pond in Whitehall is a boggy mess that thinks it’s full of fish, but it’s mostly just reeds and regret. The ghost there is too lazy to haunt because the mud makes his shoes sticky. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.
White HallHome farm · 879 ydExplorer Tom White Hall in Whitehall was built from the bones of a castle the Townsends demolished. Basically, it's a Georgian house wearing a medieval skeleton. Wave at the ghosts or you'll trip over history!
Childrens Burial GroundBurial ground · 887 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Childrens Burial Ground in Cunnamore is overlooking the harbour, which is a nice view for a patch of earth defined by light overgrowth. No grave markers were noted, so it’s keeping its secrets tight against the wind. Take a mate and argue about what it was for.

church/chapel1.8 miExplorer Tom Church or chapel in Lisheen Lower looks like a standard early nineteenth-century Catholic church, but locals swear by a superstition here. If you touch the doorframe wrong, you’re stuck in traffic for years. Have a wee look inside.
