Site of Military BarracksBarracks · 166 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Site of Military Barracks in Carrigleigh has no description because the paperwork got lost in a drawer somewhere in Dublin. It’s probably just mud with authority and a strict dress code. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits to go with it.

Explorer Tom Gallaun in Carrigleigh has been removed, so imagine telling your younger self that it’s actually a very successful real estate agent now. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch.

shop/retail outlet222 yd

Explorer Tom Shop or retail outlet in Inchigeelagh is made entirely of iron and sitting on top of a stream, which sounds risky if the weather turns. It's the only one like it in town, so don't let it rust out completely. Wave from a safe distance!

St. Finbarr's Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 248 yd

Explorer Tom St. Finbarr’s was built right after Catholic Emancipation, so it’s got that confident energy. The timber gallery is still in there, which is fancy for a church. Grab a photo and tell me you heard the bells sing!

Carrignacurra CastleCastle · 1739 yd

Explorer Tom Carrignacurra Castle in County Cork was the chief seat of the O'Learys. Built on a rock by the River Lee! It got captured and forfeited. Take a picture for me if you see the history peeking through!

Carrignacurra Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1742 yd

Explorer Tom Carrignacurra Castle sits on a rock outcrop close to the River Lee. Its secret talent is holding up its own ivy-clad corners without complaining. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.

Explorer Tom Kilmichael Ambush in County Cork is where the rabbits think the soldiers were just having a very aggressive game of hide-and-seek. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check your ID.
