Enclosure in CarrowkennedyEnclosure · 204 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Carrowkennedy plans its retirement around becoming a popular spot for people to trip over. It’s basically a passive-aggressive speed bump made of ancient dirt. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.

Childrens Burial GroundChildren's burial ground · 577 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Childrens Burial Ground in Carrowkennedy has very strong opinions on modern buildings and their lack of soul. It prefers the quiet company of ancient stones. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket tight.

Catholic Church of the Sacred HeartChurch/chapel · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart in Derryherbert is sick of people asking if it’s haunted. It replaced a thatched chapel because it was too small for all the gossip. Bring sandwiches and sit on the wall to listen to the wind.

Derrinkee BridgeBridge · 2.2 mi

Explorer Tom Derrinkee Bridge was nearly sold for a horse in 1820, which would have been a loss. Its limestone is so clean you could eat off it. Hang around long enough and the river will tell you its secrets.
