Castle FogartyCastle · 275 yd

Explorer Tom Castle Fogarty is in a long-standing feud with the rain because it keeps washing away its dramatic flair. It’s a Gothic Revival disaster that just loves getting wet and complaining about it. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle pretending to be a cloud.

Saint Cataldus's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 999 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Cataldus’s in Castlefogarty is throwing a bit of a tantrum about that tower at the entrance, acting like it’s royalty when it’s really just the doorman with a complex. I’m pretty sure there was a fake royal visit back in the day that nobody can disprove because everyone was too busy staring at the stained glass to notice the king was actually a plumber.

D. LongHouse · 1201 yd

Explorer Tom D. Long in Moneydass is a pub with a thatched roof, and yes, 'Long' stands for 'Long Suffering.' It’s perched on the corner, looking picturesque while the world rushes by without appreciating its charm. The shopfront detail is nice, but the name is doing all the heavy lifting here. Buy a pint; it’s cheaper than therapy.

BallycahillSettlement deserted, medieval · 1268 yd

Explorer Tom Ballycahill was a medieval borough where people paid seven pounds for land, which sounds rich but was probably just mud and bad weather back then. The burgesses stopped paying rent when things got rough, so they were pretty good at disappearing when things went south. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.

Enclosure in RoskeenEnclosure · 1.1 mi

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Roskeen has a prophecy that it would return when the rain stopped, which obviously never happened because it’s gone. No visible trace remains at ground level, just a memory of something circular on an old aerial photo. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think.

Pallas HillMountain / peak · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Pallas Hill would put 'emotional support mountain' on its dating profile and get swiped right by every local farmer who needs to think about their life choices. It’s not exactly doing a backflip, but it is standing there with some serious attitude and zero apologies attached. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.

KnockaneMountain / peak · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Knockane in County Tipperary brags constantly about surviving a storm that probably didn't even happen, but you have to hand it the confidence is there. It stands tall and proud, completely unbothered by the fact that nobody else remembers the incident at all. Pack a picnic and an excuse.

Ballynahow CastleCastle · 1.9 mi

Explorer Tom Ballynahow Castle has made its New Year's resolution to finally fix that mural stairway so it doesn’t look like a ladder built by a drunk carpenter. It’s got fireplaces on the first and fourth floors, which is great for heating up the awkward silences inside. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.

Cormackstown Heritage CentreMuseum · 2.7 mi

Explorer Tom Cormackstown Heritage Centre has a cow that tried to buy the whole place with a single carrot. I reckon it’s still waiting for the paperwork. It’s got more local gossip than your auntie at Christmas. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse.

European ash4.4 mi

Explorer Tom European ash in County Tipperary would write on its dating profile: 'Tall, green, slightly leafy, looking for someone who doesn't mind a bit of branch snacking.' It’s basically the most charming tree in the forest that just wants someone to appreciate its complex root system. Go in good boots and better humour.

Lár na PáirceMuseum · 4.6 mi

Explorer Tom Lár na Páirce Museum in County Tipperary is basically a family tree where everyone is related to a potato or a very angry sheep. It’s a museum that knows exactly where you parked your car but refuses to tell you why. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.

Kilvilcorris BogForest · 4.9 mi

Explorer Tom Kilvilcorris Bog in County Tipperary had a fox take charge of the whole operation for about three weeks, and honestly, it ran things better than the humans did. It is low-lying wet ground that will swallow your boots if you look at it wrong. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.
