Clenagh CastleRuins · 20 ydExplorer Tom Clenagh Castle is recorded as ruins in County Clare, its open map record supplying location and linked names or public references.
Sheela-na-gig in ClenaghSheela-na-gig · 20 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Sheela-na-gig in Clenagh has arms joined around her pudenda, which is very polite for a stone with no neck. She’s watching over the tower house like a stern aunt at a dinner party. Pop by and tell it it's looking well, she’ll appreciate the flattery even if she can’t smile.
Clenagh Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 22 ydExplorer Tom Clenagh Castle was nearly sold for a horse, which would have been a fair trade given its current level of sass. It’s a McMahon fort with a grumpy streak a mile wide. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
Hachured (1951-52)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 474 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom (1951-52) in Clenagh was built on a bargain that went horribly wrong, apparently. Go on a wet day, it really suits the moody atmosphere of the place.
Fulacht fia in ClenaghFulacht fia · 790 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht fia in Clenagh would order chips with extra gravy and no conversation. It is a simple soul, really. Find the wonkiest bit of the ring and send that photo straight to your group chat for maximum confusion.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in ClenaghFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1029 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Clenagh hates visitors who talk too much on their phones. Bring your worst joke, because the place has heard far worse over the centuries.
Enclosure in Urlan MoreEnclosure · 1462 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Enclosure in Urlan More makes a low groaning sound at night, probably just settling into its bones. Tell it a joke; it's been a long time since anyone did and it’s judging you for it.
Saint Conaire's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Saint Conaire's Catholic Church in Clenagh has a pebbledash finish that looks like someone threw gravel at it and decided to leave it there. It’s got that 'I’ve seen things' vibe going on, even if it’s just from the rain. Bring a jacket, it’s never as warm as I promise.
Explorer Tom Pan Am Flight 1-10 in County Clare took a shortcut that wasn't one. It’s a classic mistake. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
Explorer Tom Kilnasoolagh Church in Kilnasoolagh has a spire that’s trying very hard to look important, which is fine if you’re a church from 1816. It’s got some pinnacles that are definitely judging my posture right now. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.
O'Regan Park PlaygroundChildren's playground · 2.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The nineteenth Children's playground in County Clare is still a mystery, unknown access, but I suspect it’s filled with playful delights and endless possibilities.
Shannon Airport Aviation GalleryMuseum · 2.9 miExplorer Tom Shannon Airport Aviation Gallery is a fascinating glimpse into aviation history, nestled in the heart of County Clare.
