Fairy fort / ringfort in ArdlowFairy fort / ringfort · 173 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Ardfort in Ardlow is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass! Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and zero plans.

EnaghMountain / peak · 572 yd

Explorer Tom Near Enagh in County Cavan, the air is fresh, and the local mill history adds a touch of intrigue.

Windmill in Enagh (crossbane Ed)Windmill · 581 yd

Explorer Tom Windmill in Enagh has lost its top and would spend a lotto win on a very expensive hat to hide that fact. It’s pretending not to be broken down. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.

Ardlow National SchoolSchool · 851 yd

Explorer Tom Ardlow National School in Ardlow was built in 1897 and has that rugged rubble wall texture going on. It’s a small rural school with a big history of segregation. Sta, stand tall like you’re about to give a very important speech.

P. MorganFarm house · 1298 yd

Explorer Tom P. Morgan in Lisnabantry is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass! Have a chat with the ghost, tell him Tom said hi.

Virginia Community GardenGarden · 1.7 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this garden.

Sessile Oak2.1 mi

Explorer Tom Sessile Oak in County Cavan is playing hide-and-seek with me. I bet it’s hiding because it knows you’re not bringing a ladder. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination, even if the leaves are judging your outfit.

European Yew2.2 mi

Explorer Tom European Yew in County Cavan got the Vikings completely lost looking for it; they ended up in France by accident. It’s that kind of confusing presence. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true, because who has the energy to fact-check a tree?
