Carrigmore HouseGates/railings/walls · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Carrigmore House has an entrance gateway that screams ‘look at me’ with its carved limestone details, probably because the house itself is too shy to speak up. It’s like a bouncer who knows all the VIPs but still checks IDs. Keep your eyes peeled for any aristocratic nonsense hiding behind those fancy carvings.
Castle RockNamed rock · 2.0 mi
Kilcascan CastleCountry house · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Kilcascan Castle in Kilcaskan was built around Joseph Daunt’s second wedding, which suggests he needed a bigger house to hide from his first wife. It’s thought to be by the Pain brothers, or maybe just local guys named Hickie. Ten minutes h
Fort RobertArchaeological place · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Fort Robert is actually a ruined house from 1788! Built by R.L. Connor. It’s all crumbling slates and history. Take a photo for me to see how much of that grand house is left.
Tower (in Ruins)Bawn · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Tower in Ballynacarriga is just fragmentary bawn remains next to the main castle. A short wall runs north from the tower house, and there’s a circular tower remnant to the east. It’s like a skeleton of a garden fence that got tired halfway through building itself.
Ballynacarriga CastleCastle, tower house · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Ballynacarriga Castle is a four-storey tower house overlooking the lough. It has a spiral stair, vaulted lobby, and murder hole. The top floor was used as a chapel later on. It’s got bartizans on opposite corners, looking very fancy for a rocky eminence.
Explorer Tom Sheela-na-gig in Ballynacarriga is staring out from a castle wall. She’d tell you secrets after a few pints. Go in good boots and better humour for this one.
Graveyard in Dunmanway NorthGraveyard · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Dunmanway North has a family tree that’s mostly made up of rumours and one very confused cousin who moved away. It’s got that mysterious aura that makes you wonder if it’s hiding something or just really bad at small talk. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.
Mount GunneryMountain / peak · 3.6 miExplorer 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.
