Explorer Tom Enclosure in Ballyvorgal Beg is ready to handle a nosey neighbour with a polite wave. It’s got boundaries, darling, but don’t let it fool you. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't.
Ballycullen Castle (in Ruins)Castle, unclassified · 1277 ydExplorer Tom Ballycullen Castle in Ballycullen would teach history by showing off its secret room instead of lecturing. It’s got a hidden space you have to climb into, which is very dramatic for a castle. Tell me if the gossip I just made up about its celebrity crush is actually true.
Ballycullen CastleCastle · 1277 ydExplorer Tom Ballycullen Castle sits quietly in County Clare, its open map record marking the spot for those eager to explore its storied past.
Belvoir HouseCountry house · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Belvoir House in Belvoir Demesne burnt down in 1880, probably because the builder got tired of the damp. It’s now just a fancy skeleton wearing pinnacles like it’s going to a party that cancelled. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
Mount Ievers CourtCountry house · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Mount Ievers Court in Mountievers is a Georgian house built between 1733 and 1737 by John Rothery, who sadly died in 1736 but left his mark. It’s got red brick walls on the south side and cut-limestone on the north, which is a nice touch of contrast. Pack a picnic and an excuse.
