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!

Grave YardGraveyard · 633 yd

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Glebe has a secret talent: making the River Lee look jealous. It’s by the water, so bring waterproof shoes or regret your choice. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.

AltarMass-rock · 1187 yd

Explorer Tom Altar in Curraheen is a roadside slab raised by pillars, marked 'Mass was said here 1640-1800'. It has quartzite pebbles on top. That's a very chic altar! Go find it and see if the flowers are fresh or just decorative dust.

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.
