Standing stone in Cappagh MoreStanding stone · 244 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Standing stone in Cappagh More has vanished into some mounds of recent field clearance, hiding from embarrassment. It might be under a pile of rocks pretending to be nothing at all. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.

IndicatedFairy fort / stone ringfort · 1113 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Fairy fort or stone ringfort in Scarteenakillin has a family tree made of boulders and rumors. The wall is ruined, but the attitude remains intact. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.

Explorer Tom Meen Bridge in Corravoley, Leighcloon, Murrahin South is showing off its early 19th-century craftsmanship like it invented the concept of a rural bridge. Leave your ego at home because this thing thinks it’s the whole landscape.

Church of the Most Holy RosaryChurch/chapel · 2.8 mi

Explorer Tom Church of the Most Holy Rosary is so big and eyecatching that it probably has an unlikely celebrity friend hiding in the stained glass. It’s got polychromatic surrounds that are basically a rainbow for the serious folks. Take a map, because getting lost on the way to this masterpiece is half the fun.

Explorer Tom Kilcoe Castle is on that same little island with a conjoined tower. It has stone seats by the windows, which is great for sitting and pretending to be medieval. The stairs go up to the third floor. Watch your step; the past can be slippery.

Kilcoe CastleCastle · 4.3 mi

Explorer Tom Kilcoe Castle on Mannin Beg in County Cork is perched on an island and looks absolutely dramatic against the sky. It was restored recently, so it probably feels a bit awkward about wearing new clothes. Take a wide shot.

Monterey Cypress4.4 mi

Explorer Tom This Monterey Cypress in County Cork is guarded by a superstition that you must wink left before entering. Locals swear by it, mostly because they don’t want to admit why. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.
