Cahermone CastleCastle · 514 yd

Explorer Tom Cahermone Castle in County Cork is hiding its secrets well. It's recorded as a castle, but I suspect it's just a rock with an ego. Snap a pic if you find any mystery there.

Cahermone Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 518 yd

Explorer Tom Cahermone Castle in Cahermone, County Cork has a stone with the date 1579 and John FitzEdmund FitzGerald’s initials. He must have been important! The tower stands to four storeys now. Check out those gunloops!

Westpark HouseHouse · 800 yd

Explorer Tom Westpark House in Killeagh is acting strange with its outbuildings at the front. Built around 1800, it has a flat-roofed portico that looks like it fell off another building. It’s undergoing refurbishment, so expect dust and confusion.

Broomfield HouseHouse · 1634 yd

Explorer Tom Broomfield House in Broomfield East dates back to 1795 and has a lovely round-headed starlight window at the rear. It’s got a fanlight that really shines, so try not to get blinded by its elegance.

Grave YardGraveyard · 3.5 mi

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Castlemartyr is getting a bit overgrown and moody. There are about forty marked graves from 1783, which feels like a lot to keep track of. Give the headstones a quick wave.

Round Tower4.1 mi

Explorer Tom Round Tower in Townparks is seven storeys high and has a bell from 1857 inside. It was struck by lightning in 1749, which probably gave the tower a bit of an attitude ever since then. Take a picture for me if you pass!
